    Saw a little piece about people in California on the coast buying boats like these to live on permanently, no desire to use as a boat. Drastically lower cost than traditional housing and in the case of this little Gally quite nice accommodations. Also mentioned was younger men who instead of renting some crap apartment were renting a boat to live on. Turns out in their case it was less expensive, more convenient and they actually used the boat when they found time. Strange days, anyway great vid Nick..Cheers!!

      And you can offset some of your cost several ways. Offer a charter once in a while (maybe once a month). Also if at certain times of the year, you might be able to fish for certain desired fish. Of course, you'll want to look into any license or permits required.

    Anyway, I have to tell you, these smaller boat vids - it's actually as exciting as the super yachts, because, well it's not a super yacht, BUT it's also not a dream. Quite exciting what one could afford for a few hundred k.

    @Kennethah81 4 роки тому +3

    This is definitely one of the best packaged boats in this class! They have gotten a lot of usability out of the available space and still managed to make it look good. And I really like the hard-top with the solid sliding roof. Sure, it doesn't give you as large an aperture as a canvas sliding roof, but it keeps you a little bit warmer when the weather refuses to cooperate and requires less maintenance as the boat gets older.

    This seems like fantastic value, I suppose it's not brand new by the custom table but it looks it. Amazed how much living space you get and the amount of natural light in the cockpit

    Lovely weekender, with a very good layout. I especially liked how you called it a starter boat, and then went on to treat the video that way. Well Done Sir!

    Perfect little romantic boat for two. But even three would be a crowd I would think? So very glad to have you back Nick, the beard suits you very well Sir.
