Hi,
We are looking at a trawler to enjoy cruising and W/E trips. Are the Taiwan boats made well or should they be avoided. We like the looks and they seem to be made well from just looking. Also the pricing seems to be better than Grand Banks etc.
The other concern is we have to get into the 87' 88' year range to be affordable,,, then comes the mechanical concerns,,, corrosion, engines etc.
Can the engines be removed if needed ? Or do they have to be rebuilt inframe?
I guess that is enough for now,,, any thoughts would be appreciated.
