Thanks! Should be passing through in December and lived in Fernandina for awhile. The Luggers are the L6414A. Pretty stoked about the opportunity to own and learn about these diesels. They have such a good reputation.

Can anyone recommend a good source for Lugger parts and service? For service looking in the mid Atlantic to south east Florida.

Will do! Thanks for the quick reply!

Sailbellaluna Its been awhile since your post, but did you end up with a Defever? New to the DeFever forum. I'm a couple years behind you. We are fixixing our house up so it can be sold. Drove by Tres Bien recently. That was the first Defever I've seen in the water. It's a mini ship!

Tollycraft Yes, I think I've watched all his videos at least twice. C-shel has big cats and still was able to get decent fuel economy. seems like you get so much boat for the money. Looking at the details for C-Shell he does have a littler larger than standard holding and 3 marine A/Cs - I...

Tollycraft Thank you, really like what I see online related to Tollycraft. I'll do most my boating along the east coast and loop. The draft for these boats does not seem to be to bad. Would like to learn more about adding marine a/c and possibly increasing holding tank capacity and fuel tank...

Does anyone have the current link to the Tollycraft forum? Thanks!

I should clarify..... Boat Buyer’s Survival Guide With Jay Benford, Ken Fickett & Dylan Bailey. I've spoken with him a few times, very friendly. Visited the factory once.

That's great news....very interested in the gh37. I'm attendinding Trawlerfest next weekend and will attend Ken Fickett's boat buying course and hopefully tour as many trawlers as possible. Thanks for the reply! Don

How do you think the GH37 would have handled those conditions? The 47's are pretty heavy.

Here is the paragraph.... "Dinner tonight was on Liberty’s veranda. Salmon (what else), baked potatoe and salad. Wine (of course) as well as strawberry shortcake for desert. In attendance were the Mate and Skipper, Patty and Marshall from Sgt. Jiggs and Robin and Norm, owners a Great Harbor...

Hopefully I will be at Trawlerfest Bay Bridge and plan to attend (my work seems to have control of my schedule) the workshop taught by Ken Fickett. I'll ask him to confirm.

Thank for the insurance numbers. I'm a frequent visitor of the Mirage website and have read most everything on their site. I stumbled across a forum where this person was describing a GH 37 with a single and stabilizers. I will try to find it and post the link.

Anyone going to Bay Bridge Trawlerfest?

Can anyone provide me with an estimate for annual insurance cost on a GH 37? Does anyone have any knowledge of the GH 37 with a single and stabilizers? I found a picture and the port hole layout is not standard.
