    Pensacola area hurricane prep

    ALWAY LATE It was a simple question, does your insurance pay the 2000 a year you pay to be on Pelikan‘s haul out list? I don’t care that you paid 2000 or 10,000 to be on that list just curious if you can get your insurance company to pay. So please don’t preach to me about the cost of ownership...

    Beware of third party "for fee" boat documentation providers!

    Also, Google helps them be the first thing you see when you search for the USCG documentation center. I made the mistake and engaged them for about 30 minutes before I realized what I had done. Tried to get them to cancel and was met with aggression and hostility. They wanted almost $600 for...

    If all goes as plans, today we will complete the deal for the MT44.....Jeff from Florida Survey did one heck of a job. Rated the boat "above average" with a few suggestions. We plan on closing with the PO and sleeping on the Boat tonight. Very exciting day for us. Will be back with more later.

    cover me, I'm going in - first time buyer

    Initial verbal from Jeff Hahn was "above average" for the survey....so everything is a go. Jeff Hahn is the surveyor from Florida Surveyor recommended by many on this forum. So everything is still a go. Hopefully we swap keys and money next Friday and spend our first night on the boat.
