We just took our first cruise ever, 260 miles from Manteo, NC to Kent Narrows, MD. Three and a half days through the Albermarle Sound, Albermarle Chesapeake Canal and Chesapeake Bay. A lifetime dream come true.

Nice phots

Good looking boat. Is that radar arch added or part of the original design.
 
It appears to be original but I don't really know, they could have added the sundeck hardtop and arch, they appear to be part of the same construction. There were two prior owners, it's a 1986.
 
Is that a PT? Nice photos. Are you keeping the boat on the Chesapeake?
 
Handsome is as handsome does. Living the dream ... nothing better.
 
The radar arch, the vertical sides in the sundeck roof, the salon door and the fly bridge layout look very similar to my Nova 36 (FHB) is a 87.

Looks like you have a aft cockpit. I am going to wish i had one when i catch some fish.

Congratulations on the nice boat.

She IS a FHB, a 42, her cockpit was the thing all the others were missing when we looked at them... we didn't know until we saw hers.. what we really wanted but hadn't found :} We were like "ahhhhhh" got it.
