Stephen, Thanks for the heads up. I am planning to get the boat in June or July and will likely ferry from Skagway. I’ll make sure to check into that soon.

Planning to take a couple weeks and drive up in June or July.

Thanks, Pat! The TomCat still would’ve been our preferred boat, but I think the Merlin is going to do nicely. I know I’m going to have a lot of work to do on this boat, but I could not pass up the price. I just wish I didn’t have to wait until summertime to bring it home from Juneau.

Anybody have a guess for towing weight on the 27s, or the 26 offshore?

We are planning a short trip to Baja in the spring. I plan to trailer the boat down to the Bay of LA and stay for 2 weeks. Anybody have any recommendations on parking? Any advice about the trip is greatly appreciated. This is our first time. Thanks!
