Hello my friends.
At 5/2020 I wrote a similar thread asking about 50-55ft the same question and without any serious experience before (only 33ft previous at 2019).
Thank you for your replies and thank you that you encourage me to believe that I can be a captain of this size of boat.
After your replies I bought my lovely Squadron 55. It was so easy finally and I had only good moments.
Very nice family travels and also I did 3 daily charters And I was satisfyingly!!
Finally without any yacht controller that I was ready to order it.... After the first trip I felt that I dont need it.
Now what I want again?? Haha
I am very satisfied with SQ55... The boat is wonderful..
But I cannot say that I don't like bigger boats.
Too early maybe I want to change but if I can handle the size of the boat in driving condition I would like to do it
So what do you think?
How easy is me and my girlfriend alone to do the job ??
Now with my experience I can give a reply but maybe I am wrong.
Ok let's do it... We are in port and we want to dock..
1. We take a look for a space for us (80cm more ofcourse will be more difficult to find a space)
2. Through away anchor and we going back...
3. With axles I will align it..
4. Bow - Stern if I need help to align it..
5. My girl through a rope at someone to the dock and he through it back to us.
6. I am leaving fly and with anchor-bow-stern wireless controller in my hand I align again if I will need it untill to put the second rope and finish it.
7. Maybe I will need to play with the anchor a little to adjust the space to the dock.
All theese how much different are at 68ft from 55?
The boat that I have in my mind is Azimut 68!! I would like more Azimut 62 because it will be easier but I cannot find it in a good price.
I will be happy to see a lot replies again
