Is it new or used? Previous maintainance is good if used?

I am not trying to deflate you, just letting you know that it could become a pain in the rear.

I used to pull mine out of the water in winter, it spared me alot of hassles, salt water is bad.

So when is the subsim boat party full of debaucherous debates about U-boats? You will have to pick me up, just park a mile (or a kilometer, it is slightly shorter ) offshore NJ, I'll swim out.
The boat end was to be manufactured in 90's, I know, have had a boat before, that kind of reasons that you mention, this must be considered and weighed against the advantages and disadvantages

If I should win BIG, then this will be my "relaxing way"

Here should a picture of an luxurys Yacht have been showned

But due to some technical problems with my "photo albums and adding pics to it, there will not be any

Was going to upload following boat pics

Thanks the boat have space and are good for such long races it can withstand a lot of wind, and extreme conditions, so next year I'll try to find time to sail further than this year (as long as there is time), has previously sailed some abroad, but not with this boat, but this is up to par well, it has good navigation equipment.

One of these days I would love to take sailing lessons. Looks like such a fun activity.

I have two friends that own boats. Both of them say that the two happiest days in a boater's life is

1. When they buy their boat
2. When they sell their boat.
