Mapism good observations as always. As Dockmaster pointed out it is easy to 2nd guess the guy from the comfort of my couch. But, I do think...
Judy do you find his rolling excessive and is this typical handling for a trawler? I am contemplating my next boat and thought a stabilized boat...
I think the attraction is the power to weight ratio and additional space inside. I wonder if he increased the fuel tankage? I have a single 300hp...
