I'd consider a GB 49 .... but it's not my first choice. If we go the
trawler type boat, I want to stay with a single screw, weird as it may
sound. Right now a Nordic Tug has caught my interest.


Harumph.

I would not part with my second engine or flybridge for anything, not
even a fake smoke stack.


LOL.

We'll see. You know what I like about the Nordic Tug? It has a genuine
wheelhouse that is somewhat separate from the rest of the boat.

Little thing, but I like that.

Yes, a lot of the semi-serious passagemaking trawlers have a separate
pilot house, sometimes with something called a Portugese Bridge out in
front.

Do you subscribe to any of the trawler or passagemaking lists? There
is a wealth of information out there from people who own, or have
owned, just about everything you can imagine.

You can search the list archives by key word using Google. For
example, searching on "Nordic Tug":

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q... Google+Search

or

http://tinyurl.com/29tdbd or Google: site:samurai.com Nordic Tug
etc.

Have you looked at the Selenes, Flemmings, Kady-Krogens or Nordhavns?

How did we get off boats and onto cars? :)

I like the looks of this one.

I think I can help here.
It all started with:

might do some window shopping for a smallish sailboat on Lake Lanier.


Next post was:
If you are intending to sail on Lanier, perhaps you'd want a sailboat
with wheels to run along the dry lake bed.


Remember now? ;-)
