Has anyone laid eyes on the Voyager?

Does anyone know what happened to a 46C named Conejo? It belonged to a friend who died suddenly in Arazona. The boat was in the Bahamas when this happened and was listed with Bradford at some time. I know quite abit about the boat's history.

I am looking at several mid 80's MY's and hope that I will soon need some surveyor recommendations. Besides the mechanical issues that come with an older boat are there any Hatteras specific issues that I should be careful of? The first thing that comes to mind are the fiberglass fuel tanks...

There ae four 53 MY's here in Florida that I am interested in. Does anyone have any info on one or more of the following: Voyger 84 53 Classic Room 7 84 53 ED Lady V 87 53 Classic Bachi 86 53 Classic Thanks

I found some pictures of the boat that was being painted at the Galveston Yacht Service when Ike hit. I was wrong about it being a large C. It looks like a 53 MY or ED or a bigger MY. I am pretty sure that Galveston Yacht Service ceased doing business at GYB after Ike. The owner also has the...

Today in a blinding rainstorm with all the bridge isengrass open my Raymarine RL80C quit and displayed a yellowish screen. It is an overhead box. This was during a pre purchase sea trial and the glass was rolled up because the surveyor and buyer had opened the bridge. Water was swirling so bad...

Knowing this might influence my decision to purchase a 61 MY or a 58 MY. All things being equal, would it be cheaper to rebuild a set of 8-92's or a set of 12-71's? Again, all things being equal, which rebuild is going to last the longest?

I am removing a built-in model 85 Raritan icemaker and looking for something that will fit in the cut out. A small freezer or refrigerator???

I am selling my 2002 Albin 35' Tournament Express Sport Fish. The next boat will hopefully be a 53 ED. The Albin is a great boat but a little small for my future needs. $125,000 net to me. Located behind my house in Punta Gorda, FL Contact me at 409-739-9100 or Seasalt007@aol.com Here is a...

I have about 200' of chain for my Tigress Windlass. Today I noticed a rust stain running down the hull at the chain locker drain. Upon further investigation I found a wad of rusty chain lying over the drain hole. I dug it out, broke the wad up, and now am wondering what to do about it. How...

I am planning to purchase a new small KVH or Intellian sat dish and am looking for information on one versus the other brands. Also, where is the best place to buy one? I have heard that KVH will treat you like dirt if you did not buy it from an "authorized" dealer even though KVH sells new...

These are discontinued. I need one. Can someone suggest where to look? There is an entire rig on eBay for $289.00 but I don't need that.

I need six thumb screws for my Northern Lights Generator's sound box. The NL part number is 00-78213. The best price I can find is $17.17 each from RPM Diesel. Northern Light's price is even higher. Does any know of a cheaper source?

What was the last year the 53 ED came with 71's? I have decided that this may very will be my next boat but I don't want one with 92's.

I am getting a new four sided enclosure for my hardtop/half tower and a new cockpit awning that is laced to the aluminum frame. The 1.75" to 1.9" tubing has moderate pitting from the former owner's neglect. When the everything is off getting remade I would like to remove as much of the pitting...
