Congrats fellow Skilso 35 owner. I actually started a small site where I am detailing the fixes and modifications I am doing to mine. Some tips (unless you already found out the hard way) - get some blue thread glue and remove and reinstall with glue all the set screws on the door handles, the two set screws on the side door, the set screw on the toilet paper holder, and also replace the washers on the high-low teak table (or tables) with non-slip ones.... If you want the water pump to be 2-3x quieter, check how your pressure accumulator is mounted, if it is like on mine (bronze hard fitting), then remove the bronze fitting, fit some hose (check whale fittings on SVB, that's what htey used) and boom, instantly much quieter water pump. The toilet is still very loud though. Also keep a tube of contact or superglue handy, because the ply covering on the furniture in the gaps in drawers and doors delaminates sometimes, happened to me in a couple of places. Additionally the hatches cut in the floor have the same issue. There's also a bunch more stuff, I'll try to make writeups about it :)
@@royalgm thx, can you write down your homepage for the works on your boat, also recommend the facebook site for Skilsø owners. A lot of Good tips there.
@@grindene It's not possible to post links on TH-cam, they get automatically deleted, even if you think you are clever. I will try to find the facebook site, so far no luck.
First of all, thanks for the video. Beautiful. Great that you finally revealed your choice of boat. Excellent choice, I believe. I’ve seen some here in Finland (not the exact model) and it looks very nice. The interior has a more modern tone than in the Targa. Enjoy the boat and congratulations!
It's a beautiful robust boat Lars with a bigger range than your Botnia Targa, and I'm looking forward to seeing how she performs against your previous one.

Thx, we wanted more space. The Targa was a great sea going boat but lacked the space we needed for longer trips.
Hi John, I will make a comparison video later. They are about same size and wight. But different concepts
