Morning

Wondering who in the Greenport NY area to use for a Volvo engine survey and boat survey?
Thanks
Jon

I believe this is the boat you are talking about. If it is do you know that it has major termite damage as well??

Damn, here on Cape Cod you are looking at $250-$300/ft for April-October and no that does not include electric. Then add winter storage on top of that.

waggles02673

Already in contact with John, thanks.

Wondering if any of you NY guys know this 35 Bertram. I have been trying to get info from both the broker and I assume the owner and both have not provided much. Broker sent me info on Cat 3208s and boat has 3116's. She looks like she has not been kept up but if the bones are good might be a good pr...

waggles02673

I figured I could get the answer to my questions here as everyone is so helpful. We are still trying to narrow down if we will buy a 37 Bert or save some money and get a 35. A 35 with Cat 300hp 3208's what are the real world numbers, cruise and fuel burn we could expect to see on a well cared for bo...

waggles02673

Just stumbled across this and figured I would post it as there was some conversation on a thread I started on 37 Bertram's about going with a repowered 38 Bertram instead.

Thanks for all the info guys

waggles02673

Hey guys. Quick question thinking of a 37 Bertram and see them with different power options. Which would be the preferred power for the boat, Detroits 450 hp or Cat 3208 375hp? Would like the boat to cruise 20-22knots loaded for 100 mile one way NE Canyon run and anything over would be a bonus. I ha...

waggles02673

Thanks again for the info guys.

waggles02673

Bruce thanks for the info.

waggles02673

Wondering if anyone knows this boat and has anyone dealt with National Liquidators before? Just wondering if it is worth flying in to look at it.

I heard Viking will be coming out with some smaller models as well down the road.

Capt Pat thank you very much.

Looking at another boat with Yanmar 230s and 2300hrs. Engine maint is up to date and the engines spin up to 3400 at WOT. What does Yanmar say the life expediency (hours) for yanmar 230s? Is 4-5000 hrs to much to expect for these engines?

waggles02673

The seller bought the boat from a friend who did the repower himself. The current owner claims to know nothing about the mismatched motors. I think his "friend" who repowered the boat himself either screwed him or the current owner isn't being truthful with us. Needless to say we walked away from th...

Capt Pat thanks as always

waggles02673

I am looking at buying a boat and one of the Yanmars is a 4LHA-STP continuous power is kW 140/3100 RPM and 177/3300 rpm. This engine is a Yanmar 230-240 or correct? The second motor in the boat is a 4LHA-DTE continuous power kW 116/3100 RPM and kW 140/3300 RPM. Is this engine a Yanmar 190hp? Just tr...

Terry Thanks for the reply. Would you put the bladder on the bow or in the cockpit and then just run a hose from the bladder to the fuel fill? I am going to get a 75-100 gallon bladder but I have a friend that is looking for a 50 gallon for his pursuit outboard. Let me know what you are asking for i...

Years ago I repowered my old B28 with Marinepower 5.7 325hp MPIs and the boat ran real nice. I had posted about it on the old board. I will see if I can find the numbers I was seeing after the repower.

Jon

waggles02673

So it has been a long, long time since I post here. I have a quick question for those of you with gas boats who use a fuel bladder for longer trips. I have Crusader 454's and looking to ay add a bladder to my boat. Would I be better running it straight to the fuel system and letting the engines pull...

Second on let us know how it works. For that price I don't blame you for buying one.

waggles02673

If you only fish offshore occasionally why not rent one. It would be cheaper in the long run.

That boat is "Mojo" mitch's boat from this site.

waggles02673

That boat if I rember correctly was a sinker and it was listed on Ebay for a while.

That boat is local to me. I have never seen it though. Dana Bassett over at Millway Marina has the listing(if he is still there). I have added the link to the listing on boats.com. Dana is a standup guy and will answer any questions. On a side note Dana is one of the owners of Bassett Custom Boats w...

I like the Carolina Classic 28. From what I have heard those engines are marginal for the boat if it has a tower. have you checked out the Carolina Classic boat owners website. If not post the question over there. Below is a link to the website http://www.carolinaclassicboatowners.com/forums/ Jon

East of Chatham (Cape Cod) most everybody trolls plastic squid spreader bars. I Have found that the larger 13" squid spreader bars in Black/green with large glow stinger works best. Another top producer is drifting and chunking. The last thing that is gaining popularity is fishing live bluefish off ...

Hey guys

I came across this 31' Bahia Mar today and figured i would let you guys know. I know nothing about the boat nor do I know the owner but I can take a look at it if someone is interested.

Thanks guys, it was a long project, but the paint and tower really made it all worthwhile. That said, I'm done with projects for a long while... CMP Yeah ok Mark. Let's just see when your wife tells you that she would like more space on the boat. Besides we need something big to go to the Canyons i...

That boat was all redone as well. I used to keep my B28 in the river and run in and out of there all the time with the new boat. It gets real shallow at low tide if you stray from the channel for about a mile off the mouth. I am surprised by the sinking as that boat is kept at one of the big houses ...

Boat is located in South Yarmouth at the Lockup Self Storage facility I believe. I have seen the boat in there for several years now.

Back surgery went great! Just a little numbness in my foot and that is about it.

Hey guys I came across this Bahia Mar and I figured I would post it if someone knew anyone looking for a 31'.

Dug The Tuna bite East of Chatham is the best it has been in a long time. Every fish I have heard taken is over 60". I have been told the whale show itself is worth the cost of fuel.

I had Clarion speakers in my B28 that didn't last long at all. I would recommend going with JL Audio on the high end (Incredible sound and last a long time). Hands down the best IMHO marine speakers out there.

I saw your post over on THT thanks for the info. I think the headroom issue will really bother me. I am still looking at bot the 31 and the BF. I will keep you guys posted as to which way I go. Now I just have to sell the Contender.

Thanks again

Jon

Thanks for the info. I am also looking into the Blackfin 29' 32' but I love the lines of a 31. As for a pounding I don't think it will be anywhere as bad as my 27 Contender cruising at 35 knots coming back from a day of tuna fishing or Canyons.

waggles02673

Hey guys. Well I met with my Surgeon and I have to undergo back surgery for a bulging disk pinching my sciatic nerve. With my past history of back problems he basically said he didn't want me taking a pounding on my Contender anymore. So to that end I am starting what could be a long search for a B3...

Very well could be the one that was on Ebay a while back that sunk.

Had that happen once on a friends boat up on one of the lakes in NH. We quickly ran to a harbor as a large lightning storm soon followed. Very, very strange to hear an anntena hum like that. I have always thought it was static electicity from the storm front that rolled over the top of us.
