    What a stunning boat! and an extremely livable space. I think you did a fantastic job on the presentation of this video, the questions you were asking him, and the back-and-forth conversations, It was really interesting to watch. Butch seems such a friendly and knowledgeable fella, looking forward to watching the interview video.
    Seen some rather scary footage on the news, I hope all your loved ones in Florida are safe.

    One option are the planing trawlers that give you the benefits (speed) of a planing hull but have all of the benefits of a true trawler. Ranger and Cutwater come to mind. The problem is they are expensive and there are very few used ones, especially outside of the Puget Sound area. The newer ones even have single or twin outboards.

    So I’ve been planning my Florida boat life now for several years. At first, I was like you, I have to buy the boat. I quickly learned you need to have a place to put it. So when a deal of a lifetime came around almost 100 K under market value, I bought a boat slip in marathon. So right now I’m dock rich and boat poor. Also funny, we are from Pennsylvania also. We just flew back to Pittsburgh on Saturday from Houston Texas to look at a cruisers yacht 34 express she did not pass the survey. (Wet stringers)We actually saw your boat sitting in the river. lol. So I got an opportunity for you. My boat slip in Marathon is for lease. You probably won’t find a dock any cheaper. Recommendations for you, a 34 foot express cruiser would be the way to go. Much roomier than your 30 footer, tons of room. 34 footer is still small enough to manage single-handed. You get the 11.5 beam which gives you much more room and stability over your 30 ft er. You do not want to stern drive boat in saltwater. Salt water can eat through the bellows and she will sink. Yes I know what people are gonna say you can run a stern drive in saltwater. I would not leave it in the water for long lengths of time. If you took a stern drive out of the water after every use flush the engine that would be ok. You want an inboard. And the express cruiser style of boat they’re called v drives. Boats you should consider sea ray 320, 330. Cruisers 320,3370,340,330. Make sure you get a survey! My contact info is on the marina website. Bonfish Marina.com slip B-33. $700 a month. You’ll fall in love with the water in the keys we did.
