"Tony B-Yes it is and I wonder how much he devalued the boat, regardless of what the surveyor says. "
'"As far as the looks of the balcony itself - a very nice job. As far as the overall appearance of the boat with the extension - very dumb looking. Thats just my personal opinion and I'm sure others will think it is beautiful."

It would be nice to see what professional yacht brokers have to say about the valuation.[/QUOTE]

The Advert quotes Port Stephens Coast Guard (now called Marine Rescue) as saying "That has to be the prettiest boat on the port".
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder".
Surely the effect of a following sea would be markedly less with a traditional latticed teak platform than the solid fibreglass ones; the water has somewhere to exit instead of welling up loading the platform and attachment points. BruceK
