This boat has 2 gasoline V-8 motors. This means an average gas consumption for a day's fishing here on the "East Cape" will be approx 90 gallons of
gas for going for tuna or marlin.
At close to 3 dollars a gallon for gasoline here, your cost for gasoline will approach 300 DOLLars for a day's fishing.
All prospective buyers must keep this in mind.
Unless you have a gasoline dock to buy gasoline from, you will have to carry out 20 red 5 gallon containers out to your anchored boat, just to re-fill
it!!!
There are several of these types of boats already here, and of course are for sale, too.

i was not suggesting that this boat be deliverd and used in Baja. You know a lot of people who frequent this site do not live there
but have own property there, and may want a qulity boat and would be an ideal candidate for repowering with diesels(not necessary un less you are
running long distances, 99% os the boats in the Chesapeake and other places similar are gasolinepowered)thanks for you input........... jim

where is the Boat? can you post photos?
yachtmerchant - 4-6-2005 at 10:50 AM
Bruce,
I will get pictures as soon as possible. The boat is in Virginia. Thanks...... jim
Bruce R Leech - 4-6-2005 at 11:12 AM
that is OK I cant go all the way to Virginia to check out a boat any way . do you have a currant survey of the boat? and dose it have a international
registration?
yachtmerchant - 4-6-2005 at 11:31 AM
The boat is uscg documented, and yes i have a current survey. This is a good fishing platform and a respectable cruising boat for a couple, or a
couple with young kids. The settee converts to 2 additional bunks but realistically its too small for a large adult. Thanks! ..... jim
Bruce R Leech - 4-6-2005 at 11:50 AM
do you know how much it would cost to git it to the west cost to git the boat to the west coast? and how could I see a copy of the survey?
yachtmerchant - 4-6-2005 at 12:34 PM
Bruce,
as boats and yachts are my business i have some significant contacts with transport with in the 48. I will get a quote for you. I can fax
the survey for you! ....... jim
