      Hi Norman, apologies for the delayed response😌 That's exciting for you, I hope it's everything you imagine it to be! Will you just sail locally, or will you travel? No boat is perfect, but overall I've been very happy with Monastrell! She's nicely laid out, very comfortable to live aboard, fun to sail, and so far has kept me and others safe. Having said that, there are some things you need to look out for before buying! The cockpit benches are 170cm long and although it would be nice to stretch out fully, they are an acceptable length for 😊 All the very best to you😁

    This is awful, did you see a name on the fishing vessel, someone could have lost their life by such reckless actions, at least none of you were hurt. Illegal fishing is just a form of piracy with the equivalent lack of concern for other people or their property.

      Thank you🙏 No we didn’t see a name, it was very dark and they often were shining a spotlight directly at us! I agree, they were negligent to do what they did, especially to cut the net and leave without checking whether we were sea worthy still, or not!! Definitely lives were at risk!

    Great job with the keel, not enough people pay attention to this joint.

      Thanks for the positive feedback Mike🙏🏻😊 I agree, and I've seen some pretty dodgy things during my extended stay on the hard, in this boat yard! Fortunately overall it appears, from my observations, to be a minority of boats, but still disturbing that some people will use boats with obvious defects below the water line, but most disturbing when its an obvious keel issue😱

    why would you not just take the shrink wrap off before stepping

    • @bruce3077
      @bruce3077 10 місяців тому

      Good question👍 because it provides great weather protection, and the deck area acts as a bit of a outdoor storage area and workshop while preparing the the boat😊

      @@bruce3077 Are you planning on launching her soon? If not why did you step the mast? Just curious. Thanks for responding!

      Yes, I sure am, I'm hoping to be ready to splash end of this, or early next week🤞😊
