Greetings to all, 

    Greetings to all, 

Hi all, This is a great blog and thanks for keeping it up! Sinclair, you might also want to look at the Pacific Expedition 45 (www.pacificexpedition.com), it looks like a great boat and my initial information requests from the gents there were quite positive. I'm new to the power cat scene but this boat looks fantastic.

Not a proven Nordy, but their sailboats have an excellent reputation for build quality. looks like there is a flybridge option, not sure if you spec'd smaller hp diesels would help range or not. maybe a bit of weight savings could be converted in increased fuel carriage. As some else suggested, with a water maker you could carry less water and more fuel.

We have a listee who is having a boat built at Pacific Expedition. Perhaps he could provide on update on the Double-Wide project. He should be getting mighty close to a launch. --Georgs On 2-Oct-09, at 2:40 PM, Timothy Park wrote: > Hi all, > > This is a great blog and thanks for keeping it up!
