Moving from sailboat to Trawler

Sail to trawler

Mt wife and I sold our Beneteau 423 sailboat and purchased a Cherubini Independence 50a trawler. The primary decision maker was that the secret of sailboaters is one motors a lot. So, we concluded why not motor a bit more comfortably. Indeed, sailboats are romantic and capture a vision of exploration. But unless one intends to cross oceans I for one prefer trawlers.

We too sold our B 423 in the spring of2016 and bought an Ocean Alexander 456.
I love to sail, but for cruising love tbe comfort of our boat.

I never get tired of hearing these stories! When I'm outside San Diego Bay, most sail boats I see are motoring.

That's a shame: I'm in San Diego now, waiting for a November departure south. Great sailing wind here every day.
