1. Avoid buying hull #1 of a new build.

2. Have the contract...

Apparently Spirit Song, hull #2, is now up for sale due to owner health issues. It isn't list on YW yet but can be found on the GH web site under "pre-owned trawlers". Certainly, a sad story.

At the rate things have gone, you might get your boat before hull #1 gets delivered.

Was disappointed to see that Spirit Song will not be doing the loop after all.

Could definitely use some color, emblems and other embellishments to break up the clorox feel. Maybe like auto detailing, eh? Wonder if any of the buyers will select awlgrip esmeralde?

That might get the oil out but you still have the oil filter to deal with.



The specs say they are the high thrust/lean burn engines.

Info on the Suzuki DF60 outboards reveals oil change interval to be 100 hours after the 20 hour break-in oil change. Assuming a cruise speed of 10 miles per hour means an oil change every 1000 miles....

We drove by the facility about 4 weeks ago and saw 4 boats in production. Hull #2 had outboards on and looked like it was real close to completion. We got there about quitting time and didn't get to...

Latest newsletter said it was still a few weeks away. Can't imagine what is taking so long but certainly they want to get it right as they are aiming to produce 50 boats a year.

You might want to check the Great Harbour Trawlers Facebook page. They periodically post updates there and the last was on March 8th. Fuel consumption of 3.2gph at 15mph was mentioned.

Hi Pea - Is your boat the only TT35 boat on order at this point? Is your interior custom or pretty much standard? Those sheets of plywood look none too comfy!

Will this boat make it to market? It looks like the design is for an offshore fishing boat. I see a lot of rocket launchers. If that is the target market, the big outboards make a lot sense.
