This is an extremely nice offer, thank you. I had already viewed your listing and am very impressed by your boat and all the upgrades. The only...
Good, thanks. I get confused about MTUs and which are solid, so this is good to know. I guess the other reason to focus on the Cat boats above...
Wow, great perspectives and information! I probably initially underestimated the hassles associated with buying in a remote location, flying...
Hello, as you might recall from my other recent posts, my wife and I are shopping for a boat that we'll ultimately keep up in the Pacific NW as a...
Gotcha. I was curious as to how this works regarding warranties. Good to know. Bryan
Would the $35k cover the piece-by-piece disassembly of the old Onans and (I'm assuming) piece-by-piece installation of the new NL units? If I...
Understood. I think we're all basically on the same page. $36k (per engine) is an estimate of parts costs and may be low. Labor and additional...

Incredibly helpful feedback, thank you all! We have an experienced agent looking at boats for us and I'll discuss all this with him to get his...
Sorry to annoy you. I didn't name her...

Yes, that's very true. About half of them have been redone (after these pictures were taken) and this would naturally be part of any negotiation.
Hi all, My wife and I continue to shop around for a part-time live-aboard, intending to spend our summers on her in the PNW / BC area. We've...
We finally got a chance to step on board this boat. Regarding the electrical fire, there was absolutely no residual smell and no visible...
Thank you, Dennis, this is great to know. A lot to be said about someone who is working to build both a boat and their reputation. And yes,...
We're shopping for a new (used) boat, generally something like a Hatteras 75, and found this one online:...
Great to know and I appreciate your "local" Vancouver perspective, exactly where we hope to be soon. Cheers! Bryan
Thank you, I already have been in touch with one and am in an active dialog with a second. I appreciate your concern and advice. Bryan
