Oops, I missed your post. We ended up purchasing the Mk1 in Ketchikan that Taras looked at. It’s a 1979 called Karis (previously called Miss Miranda II). There has been some good care taken in the past with good records. She needs a little tlc after sitting for a while but we’ve been very happy...

I realize you don’t know us, but if we don’t get the waiver, we will NOT charter with this vessel. We purchased it for us and our enjoyment. Also we will NOT split up to take both vessels out if we do get a waiver. We work together. If we don’t get a waiver we’ll use the new one when we...

Thank you. We’ll give it a try. We searched for over 6 years for the next vessel after we decided that our sportfisher just wasn’t large enough or comfortable enough for us long term. We chose a vessel we both like. Buying a US built vessel would have been nice but we didn’t find one we...

Hello, I have searched and didn't find much regarding this question so I'm appealing to your collective knowledge to help me out here. We have a currently active charter business in Alaska with a vessel that is US built but have recently purchased a second vessel that is not US built and would...

Thank you. Yes that was my thought as well. I really appreciate the welcomes and quick replies solidifying my thoughts and the correct info to place on our documentation paperwork if we are successful in purchasing this vessel.

For power boats: Gross Tonnage = (.67 x L x B x D) divided by 100. it would be 38.9 (definitely not 23 as indicated on the documentation form on the vessel we just viewed). Thanks... that is good to know. jan

Oh good to know. Thank you. Much appreciated. jan

Hmmm, that gives you 3 feet of freeboard from the waterline up to the gunnel midship. That is probably not correct either. The draft is 4.5'. Interesting how many boats have incorrect GRT listed on the documentation. Thanks so much for posting that.

Thanks for the welcome. Yes, I know the formula, but the tonnage does affect my ability to upgrade my masters tonnage rating, if it's incorrectly low. Yes, it's a calculation of volume, not displacement. I just need the depth measurement to do the calculation so it's correctly submitted...

Hello trawler forum members. I have definitely enjoyed a long time of reading posts on here via my husband and finally became a member myself. We are looking for our next vessel and have narrowed our search to just a couple of boats we both like. We currently have a 1990 Mediterranean 38...
