Good luck with your next venture, I'd re-think new vs. a well cared for used one, as there is nothing more frustrating than trying to get marine warranty work done. Maybe by you things are different but up my way DIY is the only way.

Thanks Rob.
Yeah, I will also consider a nice used boat, but I am fairly confident a new boat won't be a problem either:
Before the Albin I had a brand new Glacier Bay,, had all kinds of warranty work, but it was taken care off, the GB Dealer and Yamaha dis their job, but they had to work hard. I had the boat surveyed before delivery and had a list of 37 items that needed attention :)

Yes. Good luck and thank you for your contributions. I have read them all and they provided me with multiple ideas and upgrades to do to the boat that I bought this year.

And sadly for sale yet again. Chris sold it to me due to a job xfer from FL to WA.

I’m selling it because my poor dog is getting too freaked out on it. In the roughly 120 hours I ran her had no issues, and it’s a great vessel. When my dog passes in a few years (he’s 11.5 now) I’d consider buying the same boat again. I’d still like to do the loop completely.
