New Moon, I have found that I am not using the cuddy as much as I thought and would like to get back into a traditional Open design. No concrete plans as of yet. How's NC?
Devils Fiddle,
Is it possible to take a look at thing.... I am in the market for a new boat and all I have looked at have been walk arounds. This one peeks my interest.... Would like to just take my wife by, no need to open her up or anything.... just kinda walk by.... Is the boat on the hard or at a marina in mystic?
Tim, the boat is in the water at a private dock in mystic. I'll going to have it in the water for a couple of weeks. If you would like to take a look give me a ring and we can set something up, sea trial etc. no problem.

Tim the boat has been moved to Boats Inc. in Niantic and is located on the dock there. It will be in the water for a couple more weeks before it is put up for the winter.
Bump for a nice looking boat.....
Couldnt get my wife past the grady walk arounds... looks like we are going to settle on a used 265 Express.... At least it has center control station! Good luck selling the boat.
Tim
bobcom,
I wish I could swing it, I can't imagine a better center console for the waters here in the Outer Banks. Kind of cool here today 54 degrees waiting for the Stripers to finish up in New England and get down here.
Well we got some SNOW. After spending the last few nights derigging the 200 HPDI's I finally got her over to the sledding hill. darn she flies. With 12 kids, three adults, a livewell filled with eggnog and keg of pabst blue ribbon we reached a top of over 42 knots on the Navnet. Whhhhhoooooeeeee I love winter in New England. Waxing the bottom as we speak waiting for the next storm.
Congratulations on the gift of twins! (Although I hear that they can use much more fuel than a single... )
All bad jokes aside, what a beautiful rig! I like the idea of the small cuddy: use it for storage most of the time, but have a place to crash for a few hours offshore while waiting for the bite to happen, or for the sun to come up...
What are the numbers as far as cruise speed and fuel consumption? Any pics of the cuddy? Please send any pics to: m.cullen@verizon.net
