Hello from FL

Hello All,

Been lurking on this site for awhile feeding on all the information. I have been living on a jeannuea 43 DS sailboat for the last two years. It's been enjoyable but there are places we want to visit inland that mast height and draft limits us. So we have put the sailboat up for sale and will begin the search for a trawler. The trawler that seems to fit how we want to cruise is the Kadey Krogen Manatee. Once our boat sells I will kick the search into high gear.

Look forward to contributing to the forum.

The Manatee is a good choice! Tons of room, low draft, efficient, not too expensive.

Welcome fellow Floridian!


Good luck in your search. I looked seriously at theManatee a bit, lots of room and comfortable. Big doors and easy to operate.
