Manteo, North Carolina - a truly great sportfishing center
We pulled into Manteo this afternoon, directly behind the Outer Banks
and close to the infamous Oregon Inlet. The marina where we are docked has one of the biggest collections of large sportfishing boats that I have ever seen in one place. There must be well over $100 million in boats on our dock alone. We seriously thought about getting a decent sized sportfish instead of the Grand Banks but the lack of living space on anything less than 55 feet convinced us otherwise. They certainly are magnificent looking however. |

Unfortunately it would not fit too well on our dock back in FL. It probably has something like an 18 ft beam, one of the issue with the 55 that we liked. Fuel burn is another issue of course, something like 90 to 100 gph at cruise. And then there are those 24 big cylinders to maintain. |

I wonder how much I'd have to pay the Goracle to offset my carbon footprint with that much diesel burn. :) |

Eisboch That's an excellent price in my opinion if there are no hidden issues. The upgrades alone are worth every bit of that, everything else is free. :-) |

The boat is nearby my slip and without benefit of a survey, it "looks" pretty good. The seller is obviously motivated. The price was recently reduced from 185k. Eisboch |
