It's a great annoyance when you have just spent 10 hours running the boat on a delivery (day after day) and then have to spend an hour every night...
NO, ride quality is not debatable. Ride improved tremendously around 2000 with cad/cam drawings and tank testing and so forth throughout the...
They didn't get clobbered by the freighter. They saw it, steered their own ship erradically zig zagging and drove directly in front of the...
Nobody wants them and the right price is heading south because of their age, age of equipment, they now look very old, and they're a relatively...
I manage and maintain a 62' Express that had a midnight blue gel coated hull. I had to have the hull compounded and waxed every 3-4 months, here...
I don't, I do know they switched from 32 volts to 24 volts on all of their yachts in 1987. Many years ago I maintained a 1979 58' Yachtfish and...
You would need someone actually trained well enough to actually look at the radar and understand WTF they were seeing. The lack of training and...
Age and whether people are retiring or too old to get on and off boats, has little effect on the used market. The economy has every effect on the...

Olderboater hits all of the points well. However, I have to strongly disagree with Pascals comments on Man's. I've managed a set of 2007 common...
Hatteras...…… Sunseeker...….Riva...….Searay….. in that order...…...
Carver is known for not putting enough hardener in their gelcoat which is why it causes the wax to soak in and not last and it's horrible even...
Well magnetic North has been slowly changing for quite some time now, it's not like it just happened yesterday. It's just that it has finally...
Generally the wiring is heavy enough to go from 32 volt to 24 volt on most Hatteras', but not 12 volt unless you lower loads quite a bit with...
No, but they've been around for a long time.
It is always good to swing the compass every year or two. Also, it's necessary if the boat changes geographic areas, such as NY in the summer and...
usually the hull doesn't increase too much heat load as only a small portion of it is in the sun at one time. Your maintenance and waxings...
Does the generator have a lot of hours on it? Generally if it does, the rear main seal went bad, because the main bearings have a lot of wear and...
