Greetings Friends!
I have been honing in on my next boat purchase and am nearly certain it will be a 22 cruiser. After many months of pouring through the wealth of information on this site, I have finally registered and want to say hello and introduce myself.
After 15 lovely years in rural Northern California, I am excited to soon be moving back to the Puget Sound region where I was born and raised, likely locating to N Olympic Peninsula. I am a family man, an avid fisherman and outdoorsman and love generally messing around on boats.
I currently galavant and fish from foot, kayaks, a pond boat and a 16’ aluminum fish and ski style boat. I’m thinking a 22 cruiser will be just the right thing to get into the sound and the greater Salish Sea.
I have a few specific questions I will soon be posting. Until then, I want to say thanks to the membership for all the wonderful information and discussions on the site. I am excited to join such a fun and outgoing community. |

We have identical backgrounds and I wish you the best in finding the right boat to bring you years of pleasure and adventure on the water.

Welcome aboard. The PNW is certainly a premier cruising (any boating) area of the USA. You probably already figured out, that if you see what appears to be a good boat, jump on it right away. Some are selling within days or hours in some cases. Be prepared to travel to find one.

| Like Bob says, you need to act quickly on a good boat. Put down a deposit and make the sale contingent after a marine survey is complete in a reasonable amount of time. The seller should not mind and may think more highly of you as a buyer. |
