That said.................. Nicely said and a good observation. That said....where do you believe the water comes from? Trim tabs or deck lid joint or both? I have the recall paperwork from Mainship and they seem to focus on the trim tabs do to the fact that they say to locate the...

I like this but........ I like what you did here and this is exactly what I plan to do if I find water in our new to us "99 MS 350. But.....why not the drain hole into the bilge? This seems to me to be a great way to monitor water intrusion in the future. You could visually see if any water...

Hi David. Thank you for your reply. Just to be clear. The Mainship 350 is actually a 39.9' boat with a 14.2' beam. The swim step is molded into the hull. The manufacture of the RIB I plan to purchase says weight with motor and fuel is 475lbs. I'm sure the swim step will handle any type of...

I have a new to us Mainship 350. There is currently no dingy davits or chocks. I want a 11-12' RIB with molded console to explore in when we are cruising. I don't want to block the swim step so we can still use the transom door and get on and off the boat for docking. Climbing over the cockpit...

Wow Eric. Sounds like you're living the dream. For me it's still just the dream. I appreciate your offer and I may take you up on that some day, but this virus is really changing things. For now our time line has been pushed back. It's looking like we will buy on the West Coast and head to the...

So now I'm confused. Tarus says he has shipped from Florida to Ensenada. "I have purchased 2 boats in Florida and shipped both of them from Ft Lauderdale to Ensenada Mx" That is US to MX.?

Thank you. Is there a shipping advantage to drop the boat in Mexico as opposed to the States?

42'.

The loop is on the list along with the places you mentioned. Would love to do it all, but we do have a 1 year old only grand daughter so length of time away is a consideration as well. We do expect some fly in and out cruising. Thanks for the suggestion.

More really good information and it seems like we both have the same train of thought. Love the BVI and would like to spend at least a month on my own boat. I do have a Request for Quote into Seven Seas Yacht Transport, but if I do go this route a delivery captain may be the best choice to bring...

Guy with a Boat: "You're killin me" lol You have a beautiful boat and I love the Nordhavn's. Your story is pretty close to what I was considering and experiencing. We found the right boat on the wrong coast, but I have never been one to cave easily. I too want to cruise the Keys and the...

Thank you. I'm hoping that this Covid deal is over by the end of the year, which is about my time line to cast off the lines.

Do it. Looks like you already have the boat so you're a step ahead of me. :)

Thank you for the information. Not dead set on buying on the East Coast. Just really liked a boat in Florida that I think is priced really right, I also do like the the idea of cruising the keys and the trip down the island chain and top it off with the canal passage. Not looking forward to the...

This is good information. Thank you for taking the time to reply. I have been looking at boats on the West Coast primarily Southern California to head to the PNW and maybe Alaska, but I found a boat in Florida that checked all the boxes and then some and yes, the price was right (and right now...

Hello: This is my first post but I have been a long time lurker. My wife and I have boated all our life both sail and power and have plenty of time on the water. We are considering buying a boat in Florida and cruising it to our home state of California. The boat would be a capable trawler...
