Call Jerry at GTB boat sails. He was great, willing to show us everything. After the sale he kept right on being helpful until we cruised the KK Manatee up to Chicago.
Saw lots of boats before we pulled the trigger on the 36 foot manatee. The best advice I heard about buying a boat was buy the smallest one you can be happy on.
We looked seriously at a president 43 here in Chicago that had just completed the loop with twin leamans and well equipped and maintained, but decided it was two big for us. (Last I checked it is still for sale)
Good luck

I've had my eye on that. I get their email newsletter. Maybe I'll run into you and give you a shout. I used to teach at GR Elem yrs ago before the consolidation. Loved that little school.
Also glad to see Patti's is rebuilding. The drummer from my college rock group, "Clap Hands Here Comes Charly" worked there for a while post-college. Thanks for you heads up!
