Or a Viking, Hatteras, Egg Harbor... :)

Way cool but they are thirsty little fellows and don't have as much
liveaboard cruising room. Mostly they are designed for three or four
people to go offshore fishing for a few days. We looked at a bunch of
Hatts before getting the GB49.

Yeah they are and I've looked at a couple - the fuel economy, or lack
thereof, scares me a little. I'm trying to be somewhat economical
about the fuel thing - not because of cost so much as just the thought
of burning through 300/400 gallons of diesel just for a fishing trip.


The best part was the obligatory climb up the tuna towers. :-)

That's one thing that I would probably not opt for.

To be honest, I'm probably going to end up with another Contender or
similar boat.


Cheaper to just buy the wife and a companion lots of cruise trips.
