I had made mention of the "new" boat we are buying a few times so thought I'd post some pics in a separate thread. *She is currently on the TN River. *She is a 1987 Bayliner 4588 pilothouse. *3 staterooms, 2 heads (one with separate shower, one with shower and bathtub), full raised pilothouse and flybridge. *She has a 10' RIB (2003) with a 15hp merc (2003). *She needs a few things cosmetic on the exterior (refinish brightwork and a compound/wax) and interior (mostly replacing the hideous floral stuff in the master stateroom, the busy cross hatch stuff in the main salon, replace the freestanding salon chairs and get a nice dining table) but all systems are functioning great. *Her interior was refit 2005 and that included carpet, headliner, and all interior soft goods including new mattresses, and conversion to freshwater flush vacu-flush heads. *Twin 220hp hino diesels, 12.5KW westerbeke. *The engines get 4 GPH combined at hull speed. *We will do some more refit work to her...corian countertops, etc. *Electronically she has a 10" garmin GPS with depth, fish, etc. etc., a 1990's raymarine radar that isn't new but works, and autopilot. *
We desperately have needed more space though. *Since I use the boat now as both a floating office and since we spend so much time aboard with the family, the Monk is just too small for our family of 4 (plus a dog so call it 5!) for extended time aboard. *This boat will allow us to spend weeks at a time aboard and not be piled on top of each other. *I LOVE the raised pilothouse!*
