Re: Why Not Build a Motor Boat Like a Sailboat ?

Question Minimum Range for Circumnavigation

Searched and couldn't seem to find the answer. (Either I have weird questions or I'm a bad searcher) What is the minimum range for a Motor Yacht to be able to circumnavigate the globe?

Re: Engine and Generator Fuel Supply

Re: Have to Go Home - What to Do with the Boat ?

I'm sorry to hear that. Hate hearing about anyone losing a boat. I see you have a 43' ketch now looks like you upgraded a bit.

Tower on a Sport Fisher

I've searched, and it's probably so basic no one has bothered to answer. But I hate to make assumptions. So what is the tower for on Sport Fishers?

Re: Why Not Build a Motor Boat Like a Sailboat ?

Re: Furling Mainsail or Not ?

I think you could irresponsibly use any sail regardless if it's in-mast or or not. So if you are running the head sail only or not, that is almost irrelevant. The only relevancy I'm seeing is someone...
