My wife and I are looking at buying a boat. We found a great boat that
looks like it is a good deal. Does anyone have any information on this
boat, either positive or negative?

We are looking to use this boat as a place to stay on the weekends and for
cruising to the Bahamas.


When you say "rookie" how "rookie"?

This is a lot of boat for a first timer. If you have experience with
some recency with vessels this large, then fine. If not, then I would
look for something a little smaller - you can always upgrade later.

This is also a Left Coast boat - getting to the Right Coast could be
problematic.

Not to mention getting it surveyed, insured, etc.

Maybe look a little closer to home?

Later,
