    How about this guy?

    In my price range seems an easy convert to pleasure cruiser but obviously fiberglass over wood. Heard good and bad about this. Opened by mind to think out of the box just look for established manufacturer *boats.* http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/van/boa/2264114363.html Also found 900.00...

    Small marine diesel Prices

    Thanks guys. Might go used at those prices. There is a beat up Albin at the harbor in down I will ask if he is willing to sell. But might hold off if it is just a hull. -- Edited by elhewman on Friday 8th of April 2011 10:54:14 PM

    Small marine diesel Prices

    If I were to find an Albin 25 hull what could I expect the price of the 20-30 hp diesel to cost new or used? It is a pain trying to find this on the net. Google is not helping. Yanmar's and Beta Marine are what i have found with no prices.* Thanks guys

    from fuel hog to hyper-efficient?

    Wow, that Uniflite sounded like a good buy if I ever had seen one! Though I am venturing away slowly from tollycraft/uniflite type boats, deals like that make me re-think things through!

The Albin 25 or similar would be plenty of work for...

I Think a Small single engine craft will be plenty of learning curve, but not so much to overwhelm me. I like water time more than project time. Like I said earlier, a...

    from fuel hog to hyper-efficient?

    Yeah, good point. Forgive my mechanically retarded question but could i ditch one of the old gas engines and put in a small diesel or for that . The particular boat i am looking at has twin engines. Why I am asking this question is because I can find used diesels in the 40-70hp range at...

    from fuel hog to hyper-efficient?

    I have been looking at many boats to mainly day cruise SE Alaska and have found a few pocket trawlers I like but are out of my price range a bit for now. That said I have fallen in love with Uniflites and*Tollycrafts mainly because of a seemingly tough hull and amazing room with livaboard...
