Newbie- Cheer Men PT41

Hello Folks,

I am new to the forum and new to trawlers. My wife and I just bought our first "real" boat, a Cheer Men PT41. It is a Europa style trawler and we are quite happy with her. I have a lot of experience from my fathers 31' Sloop, but am very glad we chose Longfellow. We will mostly be in the Mass/NH area. Our home port is Newburyport, MA.

I have already learned a lot from this forum and will say Thanks in advance for my future questions

-Donny

Sorry about that.
It is a 1983
Twin Ford Lehman 120HP in a VERY clean engine room;-)
Oman generator (not running, needs starter)
Cruise air heat/ac (not running)
Raymarine SL70 GPS/Plotter/Radar
All team decks in great shape with no elevated moisture. No leaking windows or ports. We plan to have a local yard look at the gen and ac when their spring rush slows.
