Thought we would formally say hi. I've been lurking and chatting on and off of this forum for several years now. We finally found the right boat at the right price for us. It can certainly take a very long as we had several botched attempts
All is all, we are very excited. The boat is currently in Seattle in a mooring on Lake Washington. As soon as its new EZ Loader trailer is in our posession, it will be coming down to Oregon to make its home on the Columbia for now. This will give me a chance to fully assess all of its systems and familiarize myself with it over the next several months while cruising in familiar waters.
Ideally we will cruise her through the San Juan's and Gulf Island next summer with the long term goal of getting her down to Florida for the crossing over to Bimini and the Bahamas.
In a perfect world, we would have gone with a TC255, but we simply couln't see ourselves expending so much capital at this point in our lives, so this is the next best thing for us.
Pics have been uploaded into albums and I know I'll be asking a million questions throughout the coming weeks. Thanks again for being such an active and informative group. We wouldn't have bought one of these boats without this resource!
