I’m toying with ordering one of these:
Seapiper.com
And am interested in anyone’s thoughts. I would do some gunkholing, coastal cruising and maybe a trip or two to the Bahamas. I would have a trailer built I already have that worked out with the trailer manufacturer.
Probably trailer to an inland lake or two. I’d get the diesel generator option, dual air conditioning, radar, all the instruments offered. Rear thruster (bow thruster is standard). Extra fuel tankage (260 gal total), bimini and davits. Probably a few other odds and ends I’m not thinking of.
I’ve been a sailboater for 30 years, cruised and lived for a number of years aboard. Hurricane took my last boat, just have a trailer sailer now.
Most cruisers spend 50% of their time motoring anyway, many won’t leave the dock without the motor running, so this is not that different than much sailboating in range and speed.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
