    You have an opinion on what you like, why you don't contribute and explain how in your view the perfect vessel will be, referring to Richard's specs inset of going berserk and insulting people.
    Be constructive if you want to be taken seriously.
    Your rambling is childish, grown up, and come aboard like a man.
    Go on and explain your thought and the why since you opened the door.
    By the way I am 65 yo :p

    Here some more pictures of the Malahide trawler for those of you interested in such style of vessel.
    Must not be bought immediately, dreaming is allowed and keeps us going.
    I shot these pictures a few days ago when I was with my friends for some nice days. Of course these show a bit more of the "every day" condition, not the showroom situation.

    Actual price: 670k US $, complete inventory, as is, where is, ready to circumnavigate. Contact per mail please.

    Thanks, Richard

    When all else fails go back to the begining and think simple !! simple is best , You have a bunch of older boats on that original post they were probably built simple including all the mechanics in each boat .
    In every place i have been asked to go and sort what is wrong with the place and why are they having failures all the time , after going back to grass roots and the simple basics sorts the problem and before you know it there are smiles on the faces of the workers in a few days and they realize they were caught up in all the silly complications and stupidity that had been introduced into there lives , simple works every time !, live simple and live long ! .
    Smile and be happy and live even longer ! :p

    not one! Not a single one is a old boat.

    That much to your knowledge of our business..........

    I really like this one very much. I have a thing for protected side deck.
    She is a real ship. Look at this sweeping curve, a delight.

    The foredeck is interesting. Look at the bobby hatch and escape hatch on the same structure, perhaps made of steel.
    I wounder if the propeller is 4' diameter?
    As for the clearview always laking in modern boat. Glad to see it on this proper vessel.

    Have no body shots, the boat is cruising the Med.

    But the entire shape you can see on the former page.

    ....and a ships bell....who complies with Colregs anymore, half the boats in Brisbane certainly do not....they seem to do whatever they like now, nice to see a proper "little ship".

    Not sure if this has already been posted on this thread. This one is worth looking at : http://dashewoffshore.com/fpb_first.asp. Style, comfort, long range. What a cruiser! Be sure to check out the short movie clip.
