It is aluminum, built in Canada by Reyse Marine, designed by Michael Kasten, 40 feet, powered by a 4 cylinder John Deere.

Jeff,
Sierra Madre sure looks FINE !!! I like the way she sits in the water and not much of a bowwave. I am curious how she is powered and how many gph.
Regards,
Bill

RE: What does your boat look like?
Cap'n Hook on page 8 with the 54' Sport Fish. No problem. Take out the Cat. Cut the lower portion of the transom away untill 100% of the transom is above the swtatic water line. Do sugery on the bottom to one quarter to one third of the way fwd so the bottom curves up to meet the new bottom of the transom. Get 2 MP 54 Isuzus or westerbeke 55s ( same engine ). Very efficent. Add a good sized keel, much larger rudders and mount the engines inbd close to the keel. Could be done to any boat with a straight run aft. The new 54' Sport trawler would have a speed of about 9knts and a burn rate of about 4gph. Don't ask me what it would be worth though.

RE: What does your boat look like?
Bill, the John Deere 4045 series, 4 cylinder naturally aspirated engine rated at about 80 HP at 2300 RPM.* At 1800 RPM she will usually do 8 NM per hour or 7 1/2 with the paravanes down.* At this RPM the fuel usage is about 2.2 GPH.

RE: What does your boat look like?
Here's a photo of Saratoga Sue, a 1981*Great Lakes 33 trawler built by Ontario Yachts in Burlington, ON.* Only about 20 were built in the early 80's.* The company is more noted for 28' and 32' sailboats.*
Sue has a single Volvo Penta TMD40A turbo diesel with a BW Velvetdrive.*
We have taken her north to Alaska and northern British Columbia twice in the four years we have owned her.* Her home is at the Oak Harbor Marina on Whidbey Island in Washington.

RE: What does your boat look like?
We presently have a Silverton 43 MY waiting on a 52 Seahorse. We chose this boat due to the custom features they were willing to build for us, and the layout. I have been on 3 and all were comfortable for costal cruising. The earlier models were all wide bodied, and I didn't care for the access from bow to stern, however the newer starb. walk made the difference to me.
Certainly for us to go from 25gal per hr. to 6 gal per hr. was a no brainer, and retirement didn't hurt either. Price was also favorable.

RE: What does your boat look like?
Hi all =)
My Boat Looks like a 38' Ocean Alexander/Golden Star/Fu Hwa/Chien Hwa. The fact is I've seen my same exact hull under all 4 of these nameplates so I dont really know what to call it.
Single perkins 125 with a dickson stern thruster. Burns a little under 3gph at 8 knots.

RE: What does your boat look like?
Hello Jeff
Thanks for the compliment. Your boat looks very nice also. I thought I saw a boat like yours on the early list of boats participating in the Fubar Rally? *As for your question regarding where our boat was built....we built Balto in Seattle on Harbor Island.* A story about us was just in the last issue of passagemaker.
