YW listing #: 5386-2869409 She is a 97. My broker says sold boats has her sold 3 times (I think? since she was repowered in 08. Anyone know the boat? Paul

Curious about first hand experience with the 50 C series 3 and engine options. I would appreciate anyone that can comment on the C18, 3412, and 1292 boats. Specifically high and low cruise, fuel burn, and how slow they can plane on a poor day. Thanks paul

I know she is not a speed demon, but where does this boat slow and fast cruise with 1292s? how about top end? assuming well maintained 1292s at 1080 hp. Thanks

Hi all, putting an offer in on a boat in the bay area...anyone have a good surveyor in the area that they can reccomend? Boat is in the east bay. Thanks Paul

There is a nice looking (from exterior) 46 C coming to market soon with 871 Ts. I know the boat has a great reputation, and have searched through old threads, but had trouble nailing down cruise speed/top end for her. I assume 425-450 hp per side, but havent seen all the numbers on this boat...

I had a 1995 hatt and the decks were foam cored. When did hatt change to this process? Late 80's? I know the cored bottom 41 was a late 80 s boat, so maybe then? Curious about the late 80s (87 and later) 45 C and whether they would be immune to the cored foredeck soaking that many mid 80s and...

Was the 41 series 2 bottom cored? If so, was it all they was through its run? How about performance with 550 hp 692s? I thought there was a thread on this performance issue, but a quick search didn't help me out. The.

I saw an add for a 1973 53C with 1271n's, i assume at 525 hp. Listed cruise is 18k ar 2100. Does that sound right? What is the rated rpm for the natural? Thx Paul

I have a dock neighbor that wants to add a bait system and may need to add a thru hull. He was advised by a marine service guy that it can be done in the water using a diver and a plunger after drilling a pilot hole, etc. sounds hokey to me, but I don't know if it reasonable or not. His tech...

Goofing around I just saw a listing for a 1993 with the 3408s. Didn't know they were avail with them. Anyone have any idea how they suit the boat...I imagine ok as they are rated at 775 or 800' and should be close to the 1271 boats. Like all thE big mechanicals, I think the rating was a big...

I have an old dysfunctional north star 951 at the helm and want to dump it and put mount for my ipad there. I also have a great nav net 3 and don't want to spend to replace the 951 with another dedicated unit. Has anyone added a mount for the iPad? I found one called a "ram mount" that has a...

I was wondering about the virtues of each and a comparison of the 2 models. We hope to grow our family soon and I would like to get into a mid 50s convertible. I know the 54 was mainly 1292 or 3412 powered, and the 55 with 1271s, but I am pretty sure I would be happy with either as a 20kt...

Anyone see this add? I just got my "sea" magazine and there is an add for a 60 C with quad zues 600s (QSC 600s). The boat is unlabeled but sure looks like a new 60C Hatt. Didn't know hatt might be headed that way...anyone hear anything about this?

I am curious about series 1 46C performance with 871s at 435hp per side. Are they 2100 or 2300 rpm motors? What is typical cruise and max speed folks have seen, as well as fuel burm info? Thanks in advance. Paul
