Thanks for the feedback. I think what will happen is I will aim low on the Mainship since it is very new to the market. If that owner says no I will aim lower on the Coot. Both pending inspection. Apart from the trip "home" most of the trips would be inside the Bay of Thailand and average about 100 nm each way. The Mainship would be slightly quicker on that, and has additional speed when necessary. But I'm sure the Coot could get the job done as well as having more ruggedness when dealing with some of the more remote parts of Thailand (and fish traps just below the surface). Just wonder what the Seahorse products are like 13 years down the road and how many corrosion issues I am looking at since it sounds like the boat has not been used in a year or two. The broker has said some "non structural" steel elements will need cutting and replacing. That doesn't concern me as much as the hitherto unknown structural damage which is probably occurring. Considering the following photos.
