Eisboch Yes, I grabbed the wheel and went back and forth and said "wheeee" just to impress the owner, who has sold Microsoft vestment to purchase. That boat was for sale a couple of years later for a ****load less than what he paid. His stock wasn't worth what it once was, neither was his boat. |

When I was 10 to 15 years from my "event" I couldn't imagine it happening let alone see it coming or plan for it. You must be smart. Eisboch |

The engines were the MercCruiser (GM) 454ci and the hoses that ran from the risers to the mufflers were either 4" or 6" diameter. (can't remember). The boat yard where I bought the boat located and installed them. I never liked that boat. Sold it. Now boatless. Miss the Navigator. Eisboch Considering your previous taste in boats, I never could figure out why you bought that last boat. I would have kept the little GB if it were in good shape, since it seemed well-found and also satisfied your need for creature comforts when "bach'ing" it. There were a few American Tugs or whatever that other brand is for sale at a local boatyard. Looked lightly used. You ever look 'em over? If I could convince the Crown Corp I worked for to double my modest pension, that's the type of boat I'd take command of. Up here, we need something seaworthy& comfortable for coastal cruising... especially with a somewhat short, usually damp, boating season. I liked the looks of that Navigator...looked "shippy" to me. As in Disney floating hotel? |

Never liked the lines or the look and they drop value pretty quick. Somebody was happy with you having paid the depreciation. You are entitled to your opinion. Ever been in one in 8 foot confused seas? Ever seen how they are constructed? Ever been in the engine spaces and seen the size of the main stringers and the general construction and design of the important elements of a boat? Ever spent 10 hours a day at cruise speed, 30 miles offshore on one? Have you owned one? Ever spent any serious time underway on one? Have you piloted one in rough seas? Handled one in close quarter maneuvering? I suspect not. Something tells me you don't like them and made your unsolicited comments simply because I owned one. I agree they are not "pretty" in the eyes of all, but they are highly regarded in marine surveyor's circles as being very well designed and built from a marine engineering point of view. They are basically the same boat as a Californian Yacht, the original Marshall design and boat line which he sold and then purchased back a few years ago. I could recite the main reason I decided to buy one, and the opinions of seasoned, larger boat owners who were underway on the one I had but I doubt they would be meaningful to you. I also don't think that the difference in what I originally paid for it and what I sold it for almost 9 years later represented an excessive "hit", depreciation-wise. Very few new boats hold their value well. Don't quit your day job to become a marine surveyor. Eisboch Can you spell T-R-O-L-L ? It's more than that. Eisbock is obviously successful and JPS is Jealous of the fact. Anonymous trolls are the worst. You can tell that the duck keeps a sharp eye on things. So much so that he doesn't know how to spell Richard's handle. Read for content, the Duck didn't write that. Matters not to krawsee. He'll attack anyone that isn't on board with Oh-bammy's save the unions screw everyone else plan. |

Perhaps not as smart as you but I'm still working on it. We're in an industry that's getting a lot of attention. Our technology helps integrate disparate technologies that weren't designed or engineered to work with others. Silos. Being able to aggregate technical capabiities from different manufacturers is attractive to those having to choose the best fit for specific requirements. It's reasonable to assume that any number of companies who operate in this space will find that capability attractive and want to own it or keep it from the hands of competitors. I don't care which. |
