Well I feel like we have been down this road before (many times before) now that we closed the deal on La Tempestad and find ourselves officially boat-less. This was another very quick sale (a couple of months being listed) and we had more people wanting to see the boat then we could accommodate. We actually have sellers remorse as we have to face reality and the time without a boat.
While we would like to build one more new boat the cost and time is a factor. If we go with a used boat we decided it has be less then 5 years old. This does limit our options especially when the first mate is leaning towards active fin stabilizers this time around. Another limiting factor we have to deal with.
Add in the "no boat is perfect" aspect of narrowing down the boat and we have a little ways to go.
We hope to make a decision New versus Used within the next month and will advise. Only good part of being between boats is that dreaming doesn't cost anything.
