    I am having some difficulty doing research on the CHP Oceania Trawlers.
    Could any members here direct me to any reviews or supply any information on the quality & construction of these boats, please?
    I have found two that look very nice on the following links:

    I like the 48' because of the 3208 CAT 275 HP & 17 knot top end speed.
    The 42' has Ford-Lehman 6D380 135 Hp for 9 knot cruising, top end not listed.
    Comments on these two boats & engines would be very much appreciated.
    My main use for the boat would be for living aboard and cruising on Lake Ontario with extended travels through the St. Lawrence & Great Lakes. I also have a concern about 17 knots being boring for me because I am used to speed and up until now been concidering CPMY's of same size at +20 knots, but for living aboard these two boats look like comfy 'Trawleryachts'. Feedback would be appreciated.
