A friend of mine in San Diego is looking at several Bayliner Model 4788s that are for sale there and asked me what I thought of them. I've had 2 friend that owned 4788s and one that owned a 45 foot model and they really like the boats. I told him I'd go for one with the Cummins engines, but to...

This is just my opinion, but I think when the owner repowered her in 2010 and put 6 cylinders Cummins in with only 210 HP he greatly under powered her. I also wonder if they are as heavy as the Detroits he took out and what that did to the buoyancy of the boat...

A friend of mine is looking at a Carver 570 Pilothouse Motoryacht and asked me about their seaworthiness. He is looking for something he and his wife can cruise the Caribbean with, I told him to forget the Carver. My only experience with one is when I lived aboard in San Diego a couple had one...

I seem to remember during a discussion that someone had looked at a 58 LRC named Emerald Lady in in Ft. Lauderdale. However, I have done ever search I can think of and cannot locate the thread so if you see this please PM me. This is the Yachtworld link to refresh your memory...

Hello everyone, sorry I haven't been posting but undergoing chemo treatments for cancer. I've been sick for months and they finally found the cause. I hope to soon be back to normal. A friend of mine in PA asked me about this boat and I think we talk about it before but I am too sick from the...

What year did Hatteras introduce the 58' with an 18'2" beam?

My wife and I have seen several boats with wallpaper and are wondering what are they trying to hide. I never remember being on a boat with wallpaper until the past year looking at boats. I hope this is not a new fashion trend, I would think wallpaper would have trouble in a saltwater...

This Friday I am going to look at a 53 MY and a 58 YF in Sarasota FL. Do either of these models have items that I should look for, places where the model is known to develop issues. Problems with the way plumbing, electrical, mechanical, or any other item that is unique to either of these...

The Delaware Bridge connects the Pa and NJ Turnpikes, if you are planning any travel involving that bridge you definitely want to revise your route. http://www.philly.com/philly/news/20170122_No_traffic_on_Delaware_River_Bridge_while_fracture_is_assessed__fixed.html

There is a 58 YF for sale in Jacksonville, FL with these engines. I know several people with Cummins engines and they are very happy with them. I don't know anything about the model QSC 540, are they good engines for a 58 YF?

I have found a LRC that I am interested in, but prior to committing to going there to look at her I'd like to find someone that will take a look at her and let me know if it is worth going to look at. I'd appreciate any recommendations on a surveyor or qualified person to look at her. This is...

I have seen many boats that do not live up to the pictures posted by the broker on Yachtworld. Yesterday, here in San Diego, I looked at a trawler that by the pictures posted by the broker looked really nice, in the real world it was an insult to the owner and the broker for misrepresenting the...

We are thinking of moving from a 48 (not a Hatteras) to a larger boat, preferable a Hatteras. We have handled our current 48 with just the two of us for almost 15 years. We are wondering if a 70 foot is too big for two people to handle.
