Hi, Bob, We happen to know this boat, and her owner. I believe he has circumnavigated in motor boats at least three times; twice in that boat. Penny and I have recently been aboard and she is a hell of a boat for that price. The boat is currently here in Trinidad and will likely be in FL within a couple of months. If we didn't already have the ideal boat for our needs we would seriously think about this one. no connection other than as stated above Regards, John & Penny "Seahorse" > and at the higher end was a Cheoy Lee 55 which had already done two circumnavigations, and had a range of 6,000 miles. **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above.
