Great tour Carl! I'm too late to play the guessing game but I was all over that Fexas! Are the patrol boats guarding Rising Sun just like they do the cruise ships?

Well, I can't find the mag it was in... maybe I didn't actually "buy" the mag and just browsed it at the store. Who knows? I definitely remember seeing the pastel blue hull expedition vessel before though. Maybe someone who keeps their mags better organized would know which one she was featured in.

Actually, Hargraves are built in Mainland China. Ta Shing, I believe.

paper thin, we painted one in the late nineties and couldnt use rough sandpaper on it.

Thank you for the feedback. The gentleman I was with is considering a live-aboard and I mentioned seeing a few of these boats in YachtWorld at very attractive pricing. Now we now why.

Well you missed this one:

Up the New River and Port on Guava Isle after Davie Blvd Bridge.

(Anchored in the Bahamas on the pic however.)

Low budget, high pleasure yacht....

Thank You

Thanks for including us in the forum.... stumbled in quite by accident and it was nice to read all the kind words.

After we saw you on the river that afternoon, we ran down to Key West for the week.

Hi Transition,

Small world! Glad you joined.

Your Derecktor was ahead of it's time. A nice balance of modern lines, euro-styling and traditional design elements. Performance and pedigree don't hurt either! Tops my list of favorites.

You must be turnin' some big wheels. Every time you went into gear... I had to be on plane.

Sorry if we knocked you around a bit. We're turning 42" Rolla's with Arnesons. I think we've got the idle set a little high, but my mechanic insists that I don't want it any lower (5,000 RPM). Glad you like the boat, just bought her in October and having a fantastic time working out the kinks and learning.

Thanks again.

Must make a correction Mary Anne was launched in 2001, Designer Jack Sarin builder was Sovereign Yachts Canada which was not formed until the late 1990's 98 or so. LeClercq did a very similar yacht in the same size range only the designer was Espinosa any one know which one came first.
