Judy, that Bering 55 you have listed is one sweet boat. I wish we were in the position to move on that today. We are a couple of years out but...
That's what I thought. Something kept telling me "you get what you pay for." We will keep looking. My only problem with Krogen and Grand Banks...
Been a while guys. We are thinking of getting into the trawler market even though we love power cats. But that jump is a bit big right now. Our...
I have been a fan for some time Since a steel trawler has been on our list of boats we have been looking at we have been keeping their website as...
I should have stated this in the beginning, we are looking to purchase a trawler...either steel hull, FRP or power cat with extended range. 8 -...
Great point, when I said "go anywhere" we don't do cold. Ice is for cocktails. We want to be able to do the entire Carib. Belize is very shallow...
That is why I posted the question; to tap into all of this collective knowledge. I agree that any vessel is only as good as those who run her....
My idea... We plan on having stainless counter tops on our boat. We have them now in our home and love them. They are lighter than stone, super...

Nice, good advice.....but on a more specific local.....Bahamas, BVI, Virgin Islands...even if you are on the hook just off shore....they can't...
We were wondering.....while you are cruising between islands..or on the hook and members of your party are on deck while nude...can that get you...
NYC, I can see your point on once you decide to go.....you can't turn back. That was a nasty bit of water for either boat. I would have had it...
