Reality Check please …. Single handing a 67 ? OK… I’m planning a divorce, & moving away from Calif. I’ve had a 1983 48MY for 15 years. (100Ton ticket 11 years.) I regularly (and competently) single hand it - without thrusters. I’m looking at a 1981 61 (extended to 67 by Hargrave Yachts?- with a...

I'm told that the "back end" of the existing "front" NL 20kW genny (186 hrs!) on a 1981 61 MY I'm looking at has crapped out and needs to be rebuilt. The other "back" NL 20kW genny (w 900+ hrs) is running just fine. (I'm told.) So, what's it likely to cost me to have it rebuilt (the back...

So, I’ve got another question about a thing I’ve never heard of before, that is – a windstorm plan. The insurance company would like me to put one together. They even gave me a form. Seems fairly straightforward. Except… I’ve never put one of these damn things together before. What is the...

I met their price (all cash), and their 30 day time frame for Mechanical and Boat Surveys (which I'll need for insurance anyway). And they won't even respond to my offer, "because he's too far away." ???!!!??? Anybody on the East Coast wanna buy a boat for me, then assign it the day B4...

As you might have guessed by now, I'm thinking hard about a move East. (My California suntan is baked in permanently, and I've a hankerin' to go exploring.) I keep reading this insurance quote I got, and there's this part about Hurricanes -- with a requirement to have the boat ABOVE 36 degrees...

I'm getting a quote of $13k / annual for a 63MY (G. Loop Waterways / Bahamas as Nav Area). Seems like a lot to me... Thoughts?

OK, OK ... So I have often been heard to say that bow thrusters are for pussies. I know. I know. Not kind. AND, Karma - being the bitch she is - has come home to roost. I'm looking at a 63, and while I pride myself on being good with my 48, I'm thinking discretion is the better part of...

Where to buy … lowest taxes etc? So I’m looking at a boat in Miss, one in Fla, and one in Tex. I’m thinking to move East from Calif. Where would y’all suggest I buy the boat, so as to pay the Tax Man the least amount?

Anyone take the twins in that stateroom, swing them 90degrees and make a double berth? (Believe it or not, my friends/guests like to .. cuddle .. when aboard. There is an A/C vent in the small dresser between the twin bunks. Any hidden exhaust vents, plumbing, wiring under the berths? If you...

48MY Series 1 (1983) — stabilizers ? Of the 36 made, who has stabilizers? Are fins a pain to install? I figure I’m looking at around $50k including labor — sound right?

I've got 2 of the old 1980's sinks with the deep bowl and faucets on the slant. And 1 needs a new faucet assembly, and the other to STOP the slow frickin drip! So a gasket rebuild kit of some kind. (I thought i could cut an past a photo from another thread, no go. Or, maybe I got lucky?)...

So, I wonder… If I put my 1983, series 1, 48’ MY on a transport from Encinada to Ft Liquordale, then motor on up, where along the Chesapeake might I want to stay for a year or so? I may move (the household) permanently, and ponder living aboard for that year while searching for the ’right’...

Chub declined to renew. :( "Too old" Never mind condition (which I think is pretty darn good...) Who has been getting coverage? (We're in SF, CALIF)

So, In my ongoing search for a way to have a boat in the EU and in the US, I wonder ... Do y'all think there would be a market for chartering this kind of (it will be gone before I pull a trigger on the idea) boat ...

I am pondering taking the over/under V-Berth bunks in a 48MY and converting the stateroom into a double. It means re configuring he cabinets and both bunks. Does anyone know of a shipwright in Northern Califrnia that can give me an estimate to do that work? And, I'm thinking about installing...

Gentlepersons ~ I've been a (15 + year) very happy owner of a 1983 48 MY, and am now looking at a 1990 70 CMY. Tell me, please, what are the idiosyncrasies of the 70 CMY that would make it markedly different from the 48. (As in, WFT would I be getting myself into that I wouldn't typically...

Class B? Any "paperwork" to that effect from Hatteras ?

So, I'm looking at the electrical panel of a 1982 65 LRC (in France), and it shows "Source 1" and "Source 2" AND it shows 50Hz/60Hz. Now, I know there's a difference between EU 240v 50Hz and 240v US 60Hz... And I know there's all kinds of 'stuff' ( a technical term ) that would need to be done...
