hallo 9rock. wilkommen! (that's a little german lingo for ya there.

)

i've been on the boards now for a little over a year, so if you're looking for some down to earth advice from someone who should know, i'd offer you this one bit: RUN NOW WHILE YOU'RE STILL SANE!!

actually, i found the forums last year while doing some research kinda stuff on my trojan, and found this group to be very helpful and friendly. you'll get a lot of good information and maybe even some help when you need it, if anyone's close by.

one piece of real advice though...don't ask about putting bottom paint on a boat while it's in the water.

Thanks guys for the welcomes.
I wont ask how to paint a bottom under water just what paint

This is my biggest boat to date , I have a 26 allmond and a 22 mako
but wanted a bigger boat to spend more time on the price was right so
here I am
I bought the boat 2 weeks ago and have already started on the cabin ripping out the dinette and redoing that area in a engineered finished mahogany and black walnut just for something different , I would like to add a portable ac/heat unit powered by a inverter and a portable generator so that's how I came upon this site
Its full of great info that I will use in the future

Glad to be here
