I'm not aware of a GB43.* The newish GB41 is the boat with the Zeus drives, the GB47 (used to be called the GB44) is the larger boat with conventional drive. Both are very close to $1 million new and they haven't been around long enough to be very much under that used.* Even if we had the money we wouldn't buy a boat that expensive to purchase and operate.* We've got a lot of other things besides boating to do with whatever funds we might have available.

*Yeah, sorry about that.* For some reason over here in Oz they refer to it as the 43, but I guess it depends how you measure it, but yes...it's this one,* http://www.boatpoint.com.au/news/201...uropa-41-24754

And although there are few going second hand yet...that won't pertain for long, and then....?
