I see there's been some discussion here already, but... Do you mean there's no pump at all on the overboard discharge line? Or do you mean the...
When we were last shopping, I liked much of both the Carver 530 and the 570/560... and I think Carver really is good at making space usable. I...
Good point about flying. Although I don't usually think of water skiing and motor yacht in the same sentence. Anyway, think I'd want to do the...
The Marquis 59 (MTU Series 60s) is sorta kinda along the same layout as a Sea Ray 550/58 Sedan Bridge. Helm forward, possibly with cockpit...

I don't know about a 44DB, but ours came from the factory with a hydraulic platform made by General Hydraulic Solutions (GHS). Nothing special...
Yeah, I too would guess the rise would start changing at 70' or so. FWIW, I don't know anyone who hires a captain routinely to run a 50' boat....
Ah. -Chris
