I registered today and I just wanted to introduce myself.
My boating history consists of smaller sailboats. My wife and I are getting ready to sell our house, and thus I will soon be selling my little sailboat. Upside is that we have the opportunity to move closer to the Chesapeake Bay (will rent for a couple of years), and I am starting to think about my next boat.
Looking at Mainship trawlers is what drew me to this forum. I like the Mainship 390 and the 34, but am beginning to think that a Mainship 34 Pilot (hardtop) might be the perfect boat for us. I love the 12’3” beam and the 12’3” height, as this makes for comfortable cruising, easy to find dockage, and gives the option of hauling the boat if need be. Really like the separate salon/cabin and the large pilothouse with great ventilation and the aft curtain.
I have been lurking on the forum for the last couple of months and have learned a lot. Looking forward to taking part in some of these discussions.
