A few comments
--With diesel forced air heat available in the PH why is a red dot heater needed?
We don't have forced air heat and don't plan to winter aboard in Connecticut. The Red Dot is to heat the pilot house on cooler days heading north or south.

Gotcha
Congratulaions Shifty! My NP4511 is arriving in PHL on May 22. Looking forward to it!
They hope to relocate from Canada to Blaine WA next week. i have been unable to see or operate the boat due to the travel restrictions. Once in Blaine they need to install heat,radar,and satellite. I am not sure how long that will take but i am a couple hours from Blaine so it will be good to see how stuff is put together .
What day are they moving yours down?We will be in Blaine in June for commissioning 4512. If you’re still around would love to say “hi”
RobCongratulations! Happy to help in any way I can. Ours should arrive in Philladelphia 6 June.

Were heading up to see her in a couple hours. They are washing her. Apparently they went through 20 knot seas. Trevor said he was impressed with how she handled it. He had not been on a 45 in that bad of wind before yesterday.
Congrats! Trevor just sent us a picture of ours on the container ship in Shanghai. Please post pics of your first visit!
PS. If any of you get water in the stateroom bilge would you let me know? I'm having an issue with it and I cannot track the source. Very frustrating. Other than that one issue the boat has been problem free and very solid.
Isn't it funny how small the 45 looks in the container ship but how big it looks at th
Enjoy!

Magna,
Congrats again. Post photos, and let us know if Trevor had any issues with the border crossing???
Enjoy!
I would like to clarify my comment. I misunderstood my first conversation .It was the waves that made for a bumpy ride but Trevor has had the boats in far worse weather then this and i didn't want my comments to be interpreted that the boat couldn't take it.Were heading up to see her in a couple hours.
