Full Time Liveaboard
While my Bayliner 3988 is not technically a Trawler I use it in slow cruising mode and as my full time home.
I live just east of Toronto and in my 15th year as a full time liveaboard on a Dockominium I own at Frenchmans Bay.
I hope I can add value to this forum.

TOG, Welcome to the forum! I was just looking at and admiring the layout of the 3988 yesterday. It appears to be a versatile boat with a good combination of speed, space and visibility. I can see myself enjoying a boat like yours. The cockpit is just barely big enough for a couple guys to fish from. Nice boat and welcome aboard!

Very nice boat. I'd love to hear more about the life as a full time liveaboard in your area and how you handle the winters.

TOG, welcome to TF. As a PNW member with a bazillion Bayliner MY's around the PNW, that 3988 is one of my favorites.
