A big change from the previous clean lines. Do not like the cluttered deck design, built-in seats everywhere. I prefer open decks with the...
Sounds like a lot of work. Maybe a heavy-duty lift bag on a small boat or barge, then forklift into a truck and install in reverse.
Perfect. That's what I'm talking about!

We looked at a 62 Offshore in Lauderdale a few years back listed by a reputable local yacht broker. The broker touted boat as open checkbook...
Go with the thru-hull. You can get an offset transducer that will eliminate the fairing block to compensate for the deadrise angle. Put one on...
We had an Eskimo icemaker on our last boat. Liked it a lot, think it was 600 lb. per day unit. Turned it on in the evening and the fish box would...
They were common pre-70's. Easy to bend.
Who needs a gym, just buy a boat! I'll vouch for the hard way, we did that all thread method about a half-century ago, it ain't always easy even...
So, what size tornado was it? The trees and buildings in the picture look undamaged.
