Interesting boats

It's been on the market for a few years now.

Well, it is listed with popyachts.

Although I wouldn't be surprised if it were really listed with another broker and this was a scalped listing.

Damn! I want similar twin "skegs" on our twin screw Tollycraft!!

I really like that boat. Reminds me of my old Hargrove designed Burger. But those twin skegs are really great.

We went and looked at it in late June. It still needs to come down in price. We told the dealer to let us know when it drops substantially more.

I think the owner/builder is a member here

Anyone know the back story? Why all that work and little use and now low price?

Did you notice how the rudders are not balanced? I would hope there is power steering or at least hydraulic steering to help you keep it under control.

Most boat rudders have 15-20 percent of the rudder blade forward of the pivot pin, making it easier to steer. Without that balance part, it always wants to straighten out the rudder under way, fighting you when you turn the wheel.

There is a small amount of surface area ahead of the shaft centerline
but a bit more would likely be welcome, as you say.
At least it isn't a sailboat where helm sensitivity would be more critical.

Pretty but tight wheelhouse and rounded transom is a fail for me.

Gotta love the chair for the co-pilot, lol

Best one posted in quite a while. Thanks!

Greetings,
Ad says "Cruised the Med" and was shipped over the Atlantic as deck cargo. Not enough range with the 900 gallons of diesel? Anybody hazard a guess on range?

Nice, the Limit Stalker has been for sale for a while now, video shows her better. I don't know about anything else, but (other than potential inspection and repair costs) I'd love to have that crane!

It's also yet another example of poor QC on Yachtworld, was she built in 1965 or 1985?

I like her a lot
Timber decks on steel would have to go me thinks.
Got me stuffed how they seem to have so much room on a boat that is mostly open decked.
Looks to be similar space to ours.

900 gallons @ 3.5 gph usage (says the ad.) This yields 257 hours travel time. Traveling at 8.5 knots, yields 2514 miles.... Your mileage may vary.

Greetings,
Mr. HT. Thanks. Not quite enough wiggle room for the Atlantic so the Pacific is definitely out.

That thing was a never move liveaboard for years at Pope Island (New Bedford`,Ma). Not sure if it changed hands and ever moved recently.. On and off YW ,and other venues for a bout 15 years or so... It always looked maintained though. Impressive from the street

This is nice, and a steal at $4M

[stubones99]

it needs a live-aboard teak varnisher. Way too much exposed wood for me.

Very nice...about the least ostentatious large yacht I've seen...doesn't need to be showy...clean, precise, functional, beautiful. This is the first boat of this type/size I actually like.

Would have to experience the split helm/galley, but think I'd get over whatever reservations I might have rather quickly.

 

[stubones99]

It says the hull is fiberglass, but.... one of the images appears to have wooden stringers and wooden planking just aft of the anchor locker. Maybe it is fiberglass over wood?

Video said cold molded mahogany hull.

 

[stubones99]

I didn't watch the video, just read the Dennison listing... The listing said Fiberglass hull

1000 mile range. Hmmmm...

I’ve been watching that boat for a few years - she’s berthed right near us. Would love to know her full story; might go take a look when we’re back in town.

I haven’t ever seen so many engines on a single screw boat. Has a Cummins for the hydraulics and two large Isuzu generators (20 & 42kw). Maybe you could sell those two and use the proceeds to buy a 36’ center console tender to sit on those massive decks and make use of that crane!

Anyone know the ol' 117' woodie - Deanna?? SF Bay Area. Photo in the SF Delta.

Photos come up straight when I click on em. Can't seem to get but about 30% of my photos to initially come out straight on my posts??!!

Deanna often pumps out a lot of water... water stream is on port side in the 1st photo - i.e., of her rear.

Yes, this is Adam Farrow's 117 ft vessel recently offered for sale to make room for his new sportfisher, Joker. Purchased by Bob Lee, owner of Paradise Point.

Thanks, Al! You're an encyclopedia of the Bay Area!!

Why would owner of Paradise Point purchase an old wooden boat... that appears to have seen better days?

Do you know... Did Bob Lee own San Geronimo Golf Course?

I'm just passing along the tidbits I heard in my meanderings. My understanding is that Deanna is a beaut...but I've never set eyes on her. I know a few folks who have enjoyed good times aboard.

Unfortunately, I don't know Bob or anything about him.

Nice boat - Thanks! Volvo engines though... I'll leave it at that.

If nothing else, this is interesting
