And for what it is, the Irony is beautiful too, specially as a liveaboard,
now that is comfort, and just for the record, no one is talking bout crossing oceans in her.

The first time I saw her, my wife want to go on her, I said, "Why would you want to go in that old ugly trawler? So to me its will be always my wife's old ugly trawler. Not what I/we had in mind when we first start look for a bigger boat. Bayliner, Searay, Ocean, Tolly anything that had some speed and nice sweeping lines! She knows deep down I love her as she is high maintence and pampered. My wife bought/wanted her as she just felt comfortable and right. Good Female intuition and total changed our life.

I realize you know the Coaster is a live aboard, protect coastal boat, but still ugly. If you go on enough boats, you will know what boat fells right for you.
