That must be the reason why all discerning MY buyers prefer Hatt or Viking to Euro builders... NOT! :D
Got any photos? A label where at least the brand name is visible would help. They might have fitted either a Marsili or a BCS/Twin Disc steering...
If you are looking for first hand experience, I'm afraid I have none. As you might know, SFs are nowhere near as popular here in the Mediterranean...
If you're interested in decent flybridge stairs, have a look at Riviera. Can't remember the exact models, but some of them have stairs which are...
That's precisely what I meant with my previous comment ref. attention to detail (lack of) in some "hidden" parts of the boat. See, it is indeed...
Because S/skr is indeed a premium builder in some ways, but attention to detail in "behind the scenes" installations just ain't one of them.
So, am I right in understanding that there's no abnormal vibration with your current traditional prop? And neither other problems of sort,...
Fairenuff.
Surreptitiously promoted?!? I couldn't have made a better example of what I meant by ignoring the reality and living in la-la land, even if I...
I don't think leeky didn't grasp what is being discussed. Of course Russian+rich=guilty is a wrong equation, but that's not the point. Russia...
My experience as a raggie is nowhere near enough to judge what is or isn't great among sailboats. All I know is that the boat, which used to be...
That's not saying much, really. If there's one reason that nobody in his right mind would buy a SF for, it's beauty. The captain of a stunning...
Thanks God for that. I heard VHF calls to the marina where an arriving boat asked to send a couple of RIBs out to help pushing the boat in her...
Positively +1. Pretty sure there must be some Russian folks on the field that aren't better - or maybe even worse, if possible - than Putin. But I...
She sank also according to the Russian news agency. The reasons reported are as usually different, but I think it's safe to assume that sank she...
Having in mind what a boating mate of mine paid for a full platform retrofit from the company I linked in my post #16, I'd expect their ballpark...
In Europe, most builders would agree that they are those produced by these folks.
Actually, captholli in his post #15, used the LIPB acronym for Lithium Iron Phosphate Batteries. And his post #17 suggested that LifePO4 was also...
@captholli: great, thanks again. @olderboater: interesting to hear of AB, but by "LifePO4" do you mean the type, or the specific brand as...
Thanks for the highlight. I wasn't yet aware of these LIPBs, but they sound like worth looking into. Which brands would you suggest to consider?
