Thanks everyone for your input - its certainly a learning process.
That's what I thought mi amigo, you know nothing about a Hampton 630. Thanks anyway and sorry if I in any way doubted your vast bank of knowledge...
Also Capt J, I'm sure you are knowledgeable where I will find the master shower drain clean out. Can you please share that with me.
No offence, but you have an awful lot to learn. Also you should take the time to read what been said previously in this thread.
Spoken like a true stink potter. You should talk to people out here cruising - we swear by solar. But if your typically a dock boat then it...
d_meister - As mentioned above, we have had ample experience running the boat on both engines and did not find any difference in performance of...
Pascal - we went thru a trouble shooting with Wesmar and they seem to think the system is functioning properly and other than too slow of a speed...
I love my 630 too - the quality is outstanding and we love the livability, as we live on the boat full time. Why do I need to run above 8 kts if...
Having only made crossings from Florida to Isla Mujeres, MX and the trip I'm on now from Isla to Guatemala, I've only seen quarter following and...

She does seem to have quite an unfriendly sea manner. Stabilizers seem to be worthless. I'm coming from a 44' sailing catamaran that was infinetly...
New Hampton 630 owner would like to connect with other Hampton owners to share knowledge and experiences. I've learned a lot in 8 months but im...
Thanks - You have 630 ? No problem with rough seas ? Go where my Leopard 44 would go without beating you up ??
I totally agree, being able to count on 8 knots no matter the wind sounds pretty good to me and likewise, having the option to do 20+ sounds good...
Good point, but then again I dont anticipate the extreme seas mentioned but would like to think the boat will handle the situation if it occurs....
I like the looks of the Hamptons and feel they are as well built as most of the others out there in the 60-65 range. I prefer the exterior look of...
I recently sold my Leopard 44 catamaran that I've spent the last 5 years living on circumnavigating the Caribbean. A **** fine and livable boat...
