Don’t get me started! Ok you did! They are made in Poland. Nothing against the country, or their ship building just a fact.
I walked on one at the dealer, felt a little light for size of boat similar to a small WA state brand that sells a small number of boats.
The 9 6” beam seems narrow in the cabin due to wide rails to walk around?
The toilet is a manual at that price?
Some guys don’t like the 4 cylinder yamis, I’m hoping improvements were made over the years they have been making them but..
For a 30 foot boat I want a larger cabin, the bench seating may be a true 4 person and convert into a nice bed, but compare it to the two beds on a Commander, Ranger Tug, Cut Water and some sea sports and I would take them. It feels kind of like an Axopar inspired euro feel to it.
The back deck has an amazing amount of hatches and lockers, I’m an unorganized guy and could never find anything. Where would I stow the seating for 8?
Would I need a third steering station, one at the transom trying to solo net on that huge deck
At that price I would want autopilot and radar, solar too but sun roofs in the way?
I’m being super picky but I’m pissed about something else completely unrelated and comparing it to another 9’6 boat I’m chatting with someone else about him buying. It comes in 30k cheaper and has a wicked trailer and might blow this out of the water. The proof is in the sea trial and a close inspection.
This could be a chauchi at Monaco or Vancouver harbour tour but for well thought out family and fishing machine I don’t know.
I wouldn’t kick a downtown vancouver girl out of bed for eating crackers but it’s just not my cup of tea, doesn’t mean I wouldn’t jump at the chance to go for a ride if I was invited.
