Hello Boys and Girls,
Long time speed boater on the Potomac river about to make the move to trawler speed, smell the roses type boating.
I have narrowed it down to two choices.
1. 1981 Defever 40- Ford Lehman 120 HP diesel engine - 1950 hours lot's of upgrades 1981 DeFever 40 "CUSTOM" Power Boat For Sale - www.yachtworld.com
2. 1989 Saber Fast Trawler- Twin DD 8.2 (250 HP Turbo) 2000 Hours Show boat so it's loaded. 1989 Sabre Sabreline 36 Fast Trawler Power Boat For Sale - www.yachtworld.com
What are your thought? I know about the love hate feeling on the DD 8.2 and I don't plan on working them that hard to ever overheat them, but like the thought of moving out fast is I run into weather. But also love all the work done with the Defever. I will mostly be cruising the costal waters and ICW.
I'm really excited to join this group of boaters!
Keith
