Ready to cast off....

sailbellaluna · Jan 21, 2018

Greetings from Galveston, Wife and I recently retired, house and all is up for sale. Ready to cast off for the islands and great loop. As soon as the house sells we will be looking for a 2000+ DeFever Raised Pilothouse Trawler or similar. Will be a cash buyer around $400-500k.

Great idea, especially if shared by both. Brave decision, however. Any extended boating experience perchance..? :ermm:

Welcome to the forum! Enjoy the Great Loop, was the trip of a lifetime for me.

That’s a nice budget. Congrats.

I agree with the budget comment. Nice budget! You're gonna get a beauty.

Good choice on boat design!

Budget is all pending on what we get for our home and current 32’ center console. Have a little experience in the past, was a search and rescue coxswain with the CG, then ran some go-fast boats for “G” back in the day. Also hold a 100 ton license.

If anyone is thinking about selling in the next few months let us know, I’d rather not use a broker.
