This is exactly the reason I don't like Coupe and Express models, the lower visibility. Flybridges with lower helm, it's pretty much impossible to...
That's a very good point. The problem is to know what dealer has the experience and what doesn't. In case of of SF market, not many dealers...
This is a very nice review. Thanks again. I just had another look at the Jarrett Bay 46 SF with C9 ad ZF pods. It actually is a great boats for...
So, CaptJ, you are not big fan of Volvo IPS. What about a similar Zeus setup with Cummins or CATs? There are a few articles I found that...
CaptJ, you probably right again. I trust your experienece and will do more homework. Nevertheless, remember what 1970s oil crisis did to the car...
I kinda agree with your observation regarding lower helm. It can be very useful when you are short handed and/or want to stay closer to your...
Excellent review. Advice like that saves other people lots of money and time. And the last paragraph goes pretty much in sinc with my philosophy.
This Searay 560 Sedan does look like SF with aft helm.
CaptJ, I've heard that you don't like catamarans. If you had to choose, which one or two would you pick for crusing in the Caribbean? I've seen...
Well, now I have to compare Hatteras 60 M/Y to Azimut 55. :) Basically, I'm making a serious list of M/Y, YF and SF to see at the next shows in...
olderboater and Mark Woglom (Azimut 55?), what boats did you end up with after doing your recent research?
You mentioned Sea Ray. I looked and found 510 Fly. It does look very similar and comes with Zeus drives (Skyhook and all) as an option. I'm adding...
Druing the last boat show (St Pete) I was really impressed by the looks, design, layout and quality of Marquis 650 Sport Yacht. I see there are...
google would be your best friend here. I've seen a lot of videos on youtube discussing the nanotechnology and new materials of the future....
It seems to make a lot of sense in South Florida, the Keys and the Bahamas. Most of people I know own CC and can drive them on a trailer anywhere...
84far and CaptJ, I really appreciate your opinions, especially the objective and unbiased. I have no preference for U.S., European, Australian...
Wow, this boat seems to have everything I'm looking for. The pros: - SF - Carolina flare - Nice Flybridge layout - Open salon with...
The PB MY looks fantastic and comes with Volvo IPS that I prefer. I just can't find the pictures of the their flybridge version. It looks like all...
CaprJ, thanks again. I also looked at Viking Open. It has a very nice layout with 2 staterooms. I may consider one with a tuna tower. I was...
Of course, to each its own. We are not talking only about the taste. I also like the looks and feel of 70-80' SFs. I just can't afford one at this...
