Dave, Hope all is well. That boat is a keeper. For anyone not in the know Dave is a DD experienced expert and this boat will be in well above average tip top shape mechanical condition plus will look great.
Good luck with the sale.

Thanks Mike, I am still crying.

I've been on this boat. It won't last long. Anyone looking for a convertible in this size range can look no further.

Sold a moth ago.

Well, I was not looking for another large boat after owning a 46 Bertram MY (long story not worth telling). But the wife had other plans. We have purchased Dave's 46 and so back into big boating we go. Although we start with a boat in great condition it will be a challenge to keep her as such. I accept that responsibility and while not in position to go "open checkbook" we will at a minimum keep up with current condition maintained. The boat will be loved and used by people and little dogs like it has been but in a different way. Plan on anchorage time more that at docks while away.

I will start at some point a new thread on this in everything else. Have lots of questions as I learn all this.

The boat's name is Esperanza but will always to us be known as Dave's boat. He has know, run, cared for, and later owned this one from the day it left the factory.

I glad she's still in the family.

I'm sure dave will appreciate her being kept well.

Enjoy.

I am happy to hear this as well. You bought a great boat from a great guy and you won't be disappointed. Dave has helped me on more than one occasion.

 

[captddis]

I AM glad that Mike and his family have it.

I still will use the Chris Craft , and pester all of you.

Don't you dare leave! You're possibly the Hattiest Hatt guy here. We can't afford to lose that.

 

[Boatsb]

Can we re brand it with hatt logos dave?

 

[captddis]

You bet.
