RE: WHY would you buy a boat like THAT?!

Could it be her classic lines, her nice little efficient diesel, her cozy and beautiful teak interior, perhaps her rustic appeal, or maybe the fact that it is a unique little boat designed for longer cruising and has a timeless appeal?
I have noticed that wherever I'm docked my tired old MT, and not the slick new 50' SeaRay is the boat that gets looked at by folks hanging around.* You'll see them walk down the docks to get a better angle and take a closer look.* They'll always came up to ask what kind of boat, what size, how old, etc, etc.

Why?* Like Tony said - "timeless appeal".* She looks like a boat is supposed to look.
