I want to purchase a trawler yacht for the purposes of going south to Florida for the winter months from the Chesapeake Bay when I retire. My wife and I would take her down each fall and then*return home (by airplane) for the holidays then return to Florida and live/explore for the cold months with the occasional trip back North for special occasions, the bring her back north for the summer months.*Taking into consideration*finances*and the fact that I'm not fond on constanly working on an older*boat (don't mind some work on a boat) I have determined the Mainship 390 (1999-2005) would be my best choice (would love a Kadey or Nordhavn but can't afford them). I plan to charter a Mainship 40 soon to see how I like that boat (which is the closest to the 390 I have been able to find in a charter fleet without going to the Virgin Islands or Canada. Could I get some feedback from other 390 owners about this plan?
