The first boat I owned was a NorSea 27. Great boat. In hind sight I kinda wish I still had it. I kept her for 5 years and never had a single systems failure of any kind.... refrigerator, pumps, gauges, etc. It had a nice deep sump that any water in the bilge drained to. I had cobwebs under the sole. It even had a triple axle trailer.

Tom, No I haven't picked one out yet. I'm also trying to sell my place here in NC. I'm looking for a bluewater cruiser that has an aft and foreward cabin that I can single hand. If any of you have any suggestions please zing 'em to me. Joe ----- Original Message ----- From: Tom Smith Sent: Thursday, March 21, 2013 7:22 PM
Good luck to you Joe. Have you decided on a liveaboard boat? I'd be interested to hear what you have in mind. My wife would like some lead time for when I move aboard...to fraternize with her lawyer I suspect... Tom

Some time ago I told you all that I was going to sell SeaFrog in order to scratch that itch I've had for years to live aboard. Well, reluctantly I finally put her on the market. You can see it at http://sailingtexas.com/201301/smontgomery17124.html I have no plans as yet of leaving this group. You all have been a great inspiration to do some of the things that I did on SeaFrog. Take care all. Joe M17 SeaFrog
