Our 40-footer is getting 1,5 nm/gal at 30 knots...:D
Look for a boat surveyor, that is the only way to find out. Local boat dealers can probably point you to one.
Well, it was just taken off by a new post by RobVer, but to avoid a third World War, I have put it on hold and temporarily locked this thread.......
We will see, Stenson really deserve this position and I hope it will last. Woods can relax or retire at this point and enjoy what he has achieved.
Hi, right now Monaco is pretty busy (and pricey) with the Grand Prix, but the time after this and before the summer tourist season is nice. For...
RobVer, funny you should mention it, but when I was living in MC I always took the seat belt on and off when passing the borders without even...
