I think teak must be cheap at the builder's yard.
I wonder, what is the range?

That’s a really cool looking boat. Love the single engine. Stabilized.

What’s not to like? Well, possible rotten decks and leaking windows and rusting iron fuel tanks...

The Fathom 40.....

Neat boat, nice lines, great performance. Lots to like about it. Saw one in Canada last year. Not many out there.

They mention 400 gallons of fuel capacity, but couldn't find engine size?

Yup, premium price alright, but you can ask for whatever price you want. What it sells for is another matter entirely!

Sure is purdy though...

I feel you're only kidding... sorta...

Just imagine:

You're the one using the Time Shared boat when motor blows. Ins co somehow prorates blown motor replacement at only 50% actual cost for new installed one. Boat's Time Share partners look at you with raised brows and skiddy wallets. Things work out though. The next time you use boat the gen set seizes up. And/or this happens to another partner. Got the picture! Too many chances for unexpected/costly complications on a TS boat makes it not for me.

In RE they sometimes call it Fractional Ownership. In RE... expensive motors usually are not in the mix and therefore don't blow up!

Don't get me wrong; It's not that I'm knocking the hi-tech evolution of things. Just marveling at global scale changes in society we are living through!

At 6kts you'd probaby double the range of that boat to 3000 miles. Assuming and engine speed of 1800rpm at 8.5kts. 1400-1600 rpm would bring her down to a more sedate speed of 6kts. That may put the fuel burn around the 2gph range. Dang it all to heck! Now I want to build a Sockeye and cruise the world.
