My favorite is number 2, "Balboa" (scroll down the page a bit)



Assuming I could afford the initial fuel fillup, it should last the

rest of my boating days.

That is a nice boat. 2000 hp deutz single. I liked how it was called N "Expeditionary" yacht.



I did some more research on it. It was originally a heavy duty fishing
trawler. The current owners started a conversion process in 2010 with
the intent to turn it into a luxury live-a-board yacht.

They removed all the fishing well tanks, the DC generators, winches and
all fishing related gear to make space for 6 additional cabins. I think
that's where they stopped and decided to sell it. I found a listing
where it is being offered for $345K.
