And as I expected she passed survey with flying colors. Sea trial too... brief puff on startup, immediate clearing and settling. Smooth as a sewing machine. All as per the book. 2200 RPM on the pins and just north of 19 knots. Still smooth. Shot the engines with point and shoot thermometer from every angle. All good. Of course there were a few little things, and my brain is already formulating plans to do some bigger stuff taking care of these little things in the process...... you know how that goes. But, we're gonna start out just having some fun with her. After a few minor paperwork items of course. Seller was there to answer my 4 pages of questions and to show me where everything was hiding, MOST helpful. I should have the keys by the end of the week.

Re: Rien ne vas plus.......
Thanks... Well, we had a lot of fun with our previous boats. We both enjoy each others company in the confines of a boat (although there's more space here than ever before) and as long as it's 72.5º, there's hot and cold running water and a flushie she's happy. So I am confident we're gonna have a ball with this thing.
