[Pack Mule]

That one is nice but it could take all the fun out of boating . It's BIG !

You know you want it...

I think I would be afraid to get too close too. She's a woody and that means way more maintenance, but it has two Deutz engines which means other than oil changes it would easily outlast me.

It's TOO BIG.

 

[Pack Mule]

It's TOO BIG.

That's what she said No really that's what she said .

It`s far too attractive. You`ll need help to not buy it.

Face it, if you where going to rename William to Pack Mule you'd have done it by now. I bet the owner will meet you down there Friday to check out the engine room.

I'm sure he would . I would love to have it and be its caretaker . It's needs a good woodworker or someone with deep pockets . We have a 110 year old house that we have rebuilt . I must be a glutton for punishment . I don't think we could own both and do a very good job of keeping up both . Something would have to go . I would still need my shop to own this one . It ain't gonna happen but I'm glad I looked.

These engines are raw water cooled .i was surprised to find out . Boat is in fresh water . What's would the potential problem or problems with this set up ?

Are you sure it is sea water cooled? I thought I saw a HX when I looked them up. But now that link is dead.

Any engine pics?

 

[Pack Mule]

The broker said that they were raw water but I see heat exchanger as well . It 's still listed on YW . Grand Banks Alaskan in tn

 

[Ski in NC]

You are still Jones'in for that boat, aren't you?

 

[Pack Mule]

We need some more living space. But that's a lot more . It's close by and I kinda like it , but would probably wind up hating it .

 

[Nomad Willy]

It's too BIG to be any fun.
