Try insurance from your car and other insurance. Some companies are very helpful. Putting the boat on the hard for most of the time seems best. Good luck!

Bravo!!!

Good for you!

I know someone who has been boating for forty years. He only had a fly bridge on his last boat. His new to him boat has s lower and upper helms!

I use the pilothouse (lower helm) all the time. The Command Bridge (Flybridge is great fun), but I like to have a place where I can pilot regardless of the weather.

We restarted boating in our 70’s and 80’s respectively. One of us joined the Coast Guard Auxiliary and took lots of classes. We use help when we need it, but we got a 29’ Ranger Tug which comes with higher rails, bow and stern thrusters, stand up head, iinside-type stairs to the command...

We are seniors and have a 26' Sea Ray Sundancer 260. We are relatively new to boating and want a trawler (or something) more comfortable, easier to maneuver (bow and stern thrusters), safer (less balancing on the forward deck and more and higher rails), a side door, and about 29-32 feet. I...
