I plan to walk the brokerage show on Collins Avenue. If the weather is trashy like last year, I will also hit the Convention Center.
Waterman480 has it exactly correct. The commitment involved in owning a classic Burger is pretty much like that of owning a wooden yacht. Its not...
Here's Belle. Striking similarities! Could be the same boat.
The first photo is a lovely old Matthews sedan, with the somewhat rare extended hardtop. She looks to be in exquisite condition. The bottom photo...
She sure is flat aft! With some horsepower, I bet she will get up and run.
I'm not sure what speed you're asking about. I have never checked fuel burn statistics. I think that at 16 knots/2400 RPM'S I'm burning around 20...
We may perhaps need to define planing. I did find at least one web reference that defines it this way: planing A boat rising slightly out of the...
She sure looks longer than 65 with that sleek low profile. Certainly a handsome yacht in any era. Great shots, thanks for sharing them. And I love...
Repowering to diesel and then running her like a trawler for economy is one thing. Making her a trawler forever with a tiny pair of Lehmans is...
The shrink wrap is an excellent idea. Sure looks like a lot of ripping and tearing happening there. Your wife is a definite "keeper"! Can't wait...
She's a Huckins. I don't know the models well enough to identify, but will guess at "Corinthian" mid 1960's vintage, 72' length. How did I do?...

Hello Glen, Small world. The engines are actually Chryslers not Crusaders, and she is located at Kent Narrows (Chester) Maryland which is just...
She looks better already! As I predicted in a previous posting, a cleaning and de-junking would make a world of difference. Looks like you have a...
The 671 tib's must be toast for that money. For the cost to rebuild them you could explore many other options. Keep horsepower to weight ratio in...
There's a 41 Aluminum Roamer with diesels for sale in Ft Myers. She's on YachtWorld. I'm hoping to get a look at her sometime in the next 10 days....
You'd probably be amazed by what could be accomplished with a thorough cleaning and de-junking of this craft. Even though she will still need...
Its really a shame that such a beautiful yacht has been allowed to fall into ruin like this. One must look at the economics of bringing back a...
The Flexiteek around the pool and on the balcony is a very nice looking, low maintenence detail.
YachtLuver- Sounds exciting. Was there any damage to buildings in Barbados? Wondering about The Crane. The newer structures there are all poured...
