suzook12 Posted June 3 Author Share Posted June 3 Another contender, a seasafe pacific 550. Good freeboard, a bit of info on the "other" site suggests they are a stable boat. Not quite sure how to access the anchor yet. Can you put the rope through the bow roller and pullies round to the side to tie off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attach a lazy line Steve and pull the anchor from the cockpit. suzook12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike farrants Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 I do all my anchoring and retrieval from the side - one fixed length - it all goes over and and it all comes back in. (tied off at the bow obviously) suzook12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzook12 Posted June 8 Author Share Posted June 8 Went to see the pacific yesterday. Absolute shed!! Dodgy repair in the hull, floor was shot, big chunk of glass cut out to fit the steering wheel despite being a structural part! movement in the transom and the fact its had a hull repair (at least one) and the floor is shot, suggests the bearers and stringers are too...... For some reason the trim and tilt controls were in the splash well?? Oh, and the trailer was a badly converted caravan chassis with no plate on it, no mudguards yada yada..... So I bought it!! No, not really. I would say I walked away, but ran was nearer the truth Saintly Fish, RogB and Andy135 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
