Hello to you all. I am a new member to Yacht Forums and I came across this thread whilst researching the history of this Chuck Paine 72 which is now called Rangeley. I am pleased to say that although my wife and I are an English couple, we flew over to Ft Lauderdale a few weeks ago and have now bought this motor yacht and completed the purchase. We are very pleased by your complimentary comments and we also think she is a beautiful yacht. We have been following her for the last 8 years or so as she has been on the market a couple of times during that period. We are back to Florida in a couple of weeks and are heading up to Newport R.I. and will post some photos on the way.

First stop at Hilton Head Island. The boat was faultless and despite a big swell on the starboard quarter the stabilisers did their job.

More night passages just running on AIS and radar.
