Now: 14' Lund
February 2005: Mainship Pilot 30-II

Any other questions?



Really? That's a sweet ride, Doug. I saw one at a boat show, and

watched
some Pilots being built at the factory in St. Augustine during a recent
trip to Florida. Get yourself a factory visit! If you do, I can
recommend some restaurants in the neighborhood.

One suggestion...make sure you have the bottom epoxy "painted" by a
professional crew (three coats at least) before you take delivery or
have the bottom painted.

Are you going for the "sedan" model?

Not sure yet about the sedan, although it seems like a good idea,
considering that I've already had a couple of pre-cancerous moles

removed.
:-)

It is a sweet boat, isn't it? When I first saw it, it reminded me of my
father's first boat, a 32' Luhrs back in 1966 or so. So, I was surprised

to
find that the companies were slightly related.




Slightly, eh? More than that. It is a very interesting company. If I
recall, it is employee-owned.


You know what really caught my eye? So many of the 28-32 ft boats I see
around have lines which make them look as if they'd been inflated with air.
All sorts of weird bulges in the cabin & cockpit. Too round. And this is
interesting: I've seen a few that actually have less room than my 14' Lund
for moving around and fishing. That's nuts. Meanwhile, the Mainship is
really clean looking and uncluttered.



I've been an admirer of that boat for many years, in its past and
present iterations. It's a perfect cruiser for a couple or three who
aren't interested in 1000-mile voyages. The lines are sweet indeed. Is a
bow thruster standard? If not, go for one...it really makes pushing
around a single-screw inboard a lot simpler.
