I have just aquired my second Offshore. The frist one I aquired around 1990 I was the fourth owner and was able to find and tolked to all of the preveus owners. the owner I purshed her from had completly rebilt the boat with new Disels, V Drives, Gen Set, Vacuflush heads, inside completly strip of varnish, restained and new varnish, new paint out side, it also had a fly bridge. I sold it in 1995 and bought a 49 DeFever Piolethouse wich I crused to Central America and back. But I never stoped thinking about my Offshore and even tryed to buy it back servel times times to no avile.
At Christmass time I ran across a Roamer Offshore named Turtle. She is a 1965, with newer 454 Merc,s. and much restoration all ready completed, this one has the Galley forword wich I havent seen in the earlyer offshores, and we had four Offshores in my aria.
I am debating how too get the Turtle from Wiss to MN I would like to bring her home on her oun bottem but I have no idea on fuel burn of the engines. Dose anyone have any idea on RPM and fuel burn, or what is the best cruseing speed for this boat with gas engines?
I am ready to discuss roamer Offshore's with anyone who is interrested, I have had many experances with the Offshore and love each one of them, I am very excited for spring to get here.
