Have been through a FBC too. Both the wife and my 11 yr old like the cockpit size and the outside environment better. The cockpit in the sf is laid more more how we will use it. But thanks for the input IR.

Haven't gone that far - re a surveyor. This was a run for myself and family to see if they'd really like it. Wife and daughter were exited yet a bit apprehensive the week before the run but I have a big thumbs up with smiles from them. So we are moving forward. I am taking my time as this would be t...

Didn't really pay much attn as the visibility from there really was not great due the heavy condensation on the windshield. Cold morning unfortunately. I still want to go over all of the maintenance records...

There was a fighting chair there at one time. Will likely eliminate that if I end up buying. Trying to figure how to attach pics.

The 3 hatches are fine. It's the sole between them and the engine covers that is failing. I see there maybe replacement soles but I don't think I need to do the entire cockpit. The gen set is a bit rusty but from what I've read this is a known issue. The bilge is fairly clean luckily. [img]https://p...

That would be great Tony. Thx. If you were to calculate a general cost, worst case scenario, what do you think the project cost?

Reserecting my old thread for some help from everyone. As it turns out, the boat I have had my eye on for awhile is available. I got to spend some time on it today and do a cursory inspection. After crawling in and out the one thing that jumps out at me is that the cockpit sole over the fuel tank is...

Working on getting more particular details on the systems as I think the current owner has just seriously thought about selling. If I am lucky enough to purchase her, I will be doing a lot of the work myself, but I am not a diesel wrench by any means. Luckily I have this forum as a resource. Thanks ...
