Grand Banks 60 is like double in price to an equivalent sized Galeon. Off course she is better, but I do agree Galeon has in recent years made...
I sold a 2001 Baia 63 Azzurra with the similar 1300hp but at 2300 hours, same 2.2 litre engine block. They where rebuilt at around 2000 hours in...
Very interesting. Both beautiful boats in good conditions. I think what looks dated is the door entry area. If you could open that with a...
Some important quotes re Bertram thickness from YachtSurvey which stands true to most of the models; While I would ascribe some of the industry's...
As far as I know they are not Cored and in the specification I never saw them specified as Cored. What they changed was that hull sides where...
I believe the hull for the nineties 46 Mk.ii was used for the FG redesigned 450. So that might open a few more options, if the 450 is to your...
Sunseeker was a more production product, and with shaft propulsion or surface drives available. Most of the 108 Predator (12 made) are shaft...
Sales Pitch anyone! Drafts; Sunseeker 88 Yacht = 2.12 m 82 Diva = 1.90** not official /* Riva 90 Argo = 2.15 m Ferretti 860 = 2.08 m Princess Y85...
If you are buying new, I still think Ferretti is a bit better in the quality department then a Princess or Sunseeker. It is a small bit! If you...
Looks like forward line are short for a 48 meter. Hence why it kept on moving back.
While some Antares have good hulls, and are genuine boats, the old 43 and 12 come to mind and probably the 36 with line shafts. Beneteau's are...
I hope that at least you are looking at the Antares 11 with outboard not the flybridge version.
In the USA I would look like for a Tiara if quality is a priority. An old Tiara 4000 or 4400 Sovran is a better boat then an Antares 11. I think...
Giving the Italian stamp is always too easy.... When considering that wide body where invented in USA, in the seventies. And while Italians...
Is Buddy Davis still owned by Troicki? I don't know what's the story with Dr.T, too much brands doing the same or similar thing and non of them...
To be fair the company has struggled for profits a lot since it was sold in 2008/9. It actually managed a small profit only a couple of times in...
The Princess 38 was produced from 1999 to 2003. LOA with pulpit 12.14 m LOA without pulpit is 11.81 m. Beam 3.89 m.
I thought that the family still owned the brand who are outsourcing and funding (in some cases) the builds in Turkey. I was wrong o_O Kinda like...
I think the thickness is still more or less the same today, the difference might be that most of the new builds are cored. It is an endless...
Most builders use Isphotalic gelcoat, with a coat of Vinilester resin (some two) and then the normal polyester resin below that. Some builders...
