Mystery Boat
 

What do we know about this boat? Owner? Condition? It's for sale and the price is tempting.

Bryan aka 3rdday knows about it I believe...

Looks a little butt heavy but I kind of dig that anyway...

I want it!!

Me too but there is a reason it's still for sale. My guess is a lack of a second station downstairs. The ride up top is probably awesome but I would hate to have to ride it out up there in marginal weather. As many times as I go back and fourth from the helm the current configuration just wouldn't work for me.

The only way I could live with it is to hack her up into a big Tsunami configuration. As few as there are of these it just wouldn't be right.

Add a station down back

Not a whole lot of room in the back to add another station (27 foot boat) and visibility would be extremely limited. Also, the lack of front windows would not make a cabin helm very practical and to add what you would need to a curved front face could be challenging as well as expensive. The boat looks way bigger than it is in perspective to other sportfish models with duel stations. Basically 5 more feet than a 23 and just a little wider. Very cool boat none the less and would be a perfect boat for sunny day excursions.

Make it like the SeaVilla...:eek:

Just enclose the top station then add a cows nest with a second set of controls up there! :D

When I talked to 3rdday on this boat he went thru the pros and cons...and there were some issues that led me to think that there would be a whole lot of more dollars to be spent on it to bring it up to top running condition.

I do agree it has a nice look...heck I was tempted myself.

Hey moose if you want a nice 27...in tsunami form...you should buy Todds Lures boat...now that would be perfect for you.

Oh I know.... I have resisted the urge to go look at it in fear I would buy it. The additional $30k+ in power is the sticking point for me right now. Ten years ago I would of jumped all over it but I really have to watch what I get into this close to retirement. Mel and I want to do some water travel and island hopping in a larger vessel for a few years and we really need to focus on a live aboard project before anything else.

If I had the extra coin this is what I would be looking at, someone that wanted a nice restored 27' hull that don't mind the finishing work. That is a deal. Also they could do it the way they wanted with the power of their choice. He keeps on sitting on it, one day, oh one day.....
