2. What sort of fuel economy will we be able to expect?

Range at 25 knots is 5,900 miles. 'Oil fuel' is 3196 tons. How
many gallons is this? Either way, I would have to say it's not the
fuel economy you are accustomed to.


3. Will this boat be suitable for a cruising couple, or will we need to
consider hiring one or two deckhands?

4. We are looking for a boat with sufficient
capacity to accomodate our nieces and nephews during summer visits. Is there
any chance this vessel sleeps as many as
ten?


Crew complement: 1300. You decide. :^) Certainly it qualifies as a
live-aboard.
