I do wish he'd elaborate on his feelings that this boat wouldn't be
adequate for coastal cruising from AK to MEX, with occasional
(possible) diversions to HI. Aside from marginal range (easily
corected), I fail to see why this wouldn't be a darn good boat for the
purpose.
The original spec was for a boat (power OR sail) capable of safe and
comfortable passage between the Gulf of Alaska and San Carlos, Sonora,
Mexico. The stated budget was $180,000. A length of 50' was mentioned
because buyer is 6'3" and standup headroom was a must. I do not think
this boat represents the best choice for the intended usage.
