It's the same boat.

In your view... how bad do you consider the limited photos of the rust I provided earlier? I have a feeling, that considering the total lack of care for the bottom of the boat, that the rust issues in this boat may be tremendous.

Thanks for the feedback. I think what will happen is I will aim low on the Mainship since it is very new to the market. If that owner says no I will aim lower on the Coot. Both pending inspection. Apart from the trip "home" most of the trips would be inside the Bay of Thailand and average about...
