The time has arrived to start the next phase of life. To old to run the yacht (sail), now its 55ft cruiser. Trawler style. narrowed down to: 1: Watson 72 Watson 72 2: Allegro 24 ALLEGRO 24 3: Bering. love the watson but 3m draft hmmmmmm not so sure. 2 year build time. 6 month coastal cruise shake down (east coast Australia inc Tas. then off around the world for a few years. so looking forward to this. Michael.
left some info out: Requirements: Steel. full displacement. cruise speed 9-10knots. Range 4000+ at cruise. twin engine (I think) prefered. Michael.
I have to say that the Pacific Motor Yachts (Watson) website you posted is one of the most detailed mfg sites I've ever run across. It appears they've been building boats for a while.
yes it is, I really like their boat just worried about the 3m draft. they seem to have all the issues sorted, access to all tanking, can even remove engine with out destroying the boat. Michael.
Hi, did you end up purchasing ? Interested in the Watson and if you went ahead with that one ? cheers
