OMG Jay & Debbie! I can picture Ron and me doing the same. I can't believe this will last for long, if only it was a year from now!! WOW!

Wow! That's quite a boat! I could understand the temptation! (And you could get a 28 to tow along...)

Yep, that's a beauty! Loooong range cruising with that baby. Jay, I think the banks still have money that they're giving away......well, not really giving away;). Not a bad asking price either.
It's all about relaxation :)

You will never kill that Perkins. I had a 240hp 6-354 in my 32 chesapeake deadrise. Simple motor. No electronic gobbledeegook to go wrong. It purrs along all day at 1800 to 2200.

The boat was under contract, but it fell thru.
Deb is on the phone right now with the broker.....I think I am really in trouble now. Oh boy glad I bought my Albin burgee already.
Can I stay as a member here? Broadfire only made 6 boats...probably a very small owner's group if there even is one. LOL You could keep me on as "Director of foreign vessel integration". :lol:

Just viewed the photos. Yes, you are in trouble. That is one great looking vessel. Lot's of houses don't have the refinement of this boat. Enjoy. How often is the wife the one pushing for another boat? whwells
