What I thought rcrapps, simple and sweet... It is a 57' steel trawler located in Lauderdale listed on YW. A custom build for blue water cruising....
PacBlue, maybe they copyrighted the name only. A lot of it is marketing hype, like they are the only ones offering this hi-tech design. Seems the...
Capt J, the 65 we sea trialed had the old bolt on platform, did not like it. As far as the ride, we never got out of sight of their facility in...
rcrapps, same for me. There have been some educational post on this thread. My last boat a hatteras sf had tunnels and never an issue. I would not...
Marmot, going back to the earlier post comment on "very poor linkage fittings on the rudders". During the initial walk-thru I notice the lack of...
Read there was a naval architect Pat Bray in British Columbia that did some initial design work on the strut keels and Marlow has applied for...
screwed da pouch!! LOL!!!!
Marmot,I agree. We were switching from SF's to pilothouse/my's and looking at boats totally unfamiliar with. Builders I know nothing about. Now,...

Well, time for final update. We rejected the boat for obvious reasons. Funny how Marlow Marine Sales , Inc. attitude changed from that point. Had...
What did your engine surveyor say about fluid samples and blow by?
Typical low hour boat that has been sitting at the dock. Who thought those hours over 11 years was a good thing?
Knight, you know a boat is nothing more than a hole in the water with a owner and broker saying " there is gold down there." The real problem is...
The antenna will receive the digital signal but your TV must have digital tuner. Older model TV's had analog tuner's. The best antenna for a boat...
My last boat had a Omni-direction antenna with a amplifier and work real good. I could not get local on the Sat so would switch over for local...
I have ran into the same situation twice this year. And think the suggestion of a short run on the boat and thorough review of maintenance records...
Capt J, my last surveyor said the same, he recommends hoses on engines, gens, and equipment which runs often be replaced every 5 years, but only...
