500w is only a bit less than the small Torqeedo's 600 which is surprisingly plenty for a smallish tender. 1 minute of sport mode is 1...

No it wouldn't. There were several Memorys where I used to keep my Crabber 17 and don't recall them being significantly faster. The C17...

Those with an unlimited budget need read no further. The boat you need is out there, it might not be the one you think you...

Back at work next week sadly. I think they’re overpriced still. Someone might offer 70k but the older 33 footers sell for <40k now and...

just beat in mind the market punishes high hours boats on resale. 1500 now will be 2000 when you sell it.

The ‘89 boat has been for sale for a year with no offers. My view is that ‘80’s boats have reached a tipping point in their value. What...
