This one is an oldie, but goodie. (1982) It has the little 120hp diesel
that pushes it along at a blistering 8 knots (with a tail wind) and has
been well kept and maintained. The teak deck and exterior brite work is
in very good shape as is the interior. I like the very nautical
atmosphere of it.

It should be fun.

Is your other boat also a single screw?

If not, once she becomes adept at handling the GB she will just sigh patiently
and with deliberate understanding while you "cheat" with a second engine,
thrusters, or what not. :-)

Congrats!

Nope, the other boat is a 48' Navigator, twin diesels with both bow and
stern thrusters. I've been bragging to her about my close quarter
maneuvering skills for years now and she believes me because she has
never handled the Navigator, other than steering it while underway.
The ruse will be up once she starts piloting the GB. BTW, it is equipped
with a hydraulic stern thruster that is powered from the engine.

Anything in particular we should watch for in the survey? Other than
the regular stuff, I am interested in any blistering of the hull and of
any water intrusion through the teak deck screws.
