    I went looking at boats with the kiddos, Vladi & Nikolay, at one of the marinas here (Campomanes, Altea) and saw lots of pretty boats including lots of Benetaus & Jeaneaus (sp?) and one really huge blue hull, amazing sailboat that dwarfed all the others, measuring over 80ft, we thought. I wonder how many people it takes to sail it?
    Also do you have bow thrusters yet? Nikolay said he researched them for a friend and even a huge yacht only pays $8,000 (all installation incl´d.) and they don´t do it at the marina, but they have a very highly recommended contact they refer everyone to who does it superbly. But then, you´ve probably already researched it!

      Yay! Nikolay made it!
      We have not really looked at bow thrusters in depth - just enough to know they are close to the $10,000 mark and we have so many other things that we could spend that kind of money on. We'll just learn to drive her without, I suppose :)

    We have a 393, too! Great boat. We have four aboard (2 adults, 2 kids) and are slowly making our preps for retirement in 5 years.
