If cash was not a issue what boat would you wish to own.

greg normans boat
G'day
his is not a matter of if, but when, and an tell you, it's not that far away in the scheme of things.
It will be a 90' wavepiercer very similar to the "ultimate lady"
She will be called "Inspiraton 2", be baed somewhere like airlie beach, spend a few months of the year around the kimberlies and have a cruising range and capailities to roam the waters all the way though to the philipines and pacific islands.

The one I have now suits perfectly..maybe just go to the 33' model.
Anything bigger is too much for 2 people to handle and increased running costs.

at 6.5m to buy and 450 l/hr fuel bill...makes for some expensive fishing.Originally Posted by GameOn

Ive got the boat i allways wanted,it would have been nice to be able to afford a brand new one though.My old man has a riv from raby bay to tangalooma and back at 25 knots is 360 litres of diesel,he can only travel down the jumping pin at high tide,i cant see the point in that.
Ocean Cylinder cuddy, 5 to 6 metres, fully kitted.
Tough, safe, seaworthy, dive and fishing friendly, fairly cheap to run with an Etec or similar, but all up cost too xxxy for me, unfortunately!
Cheers!
Troy,
been done before.

I always like the old 25 berty...its one thing having the boat but you need to be able to afford to run it , so id stay to something like that or a plate alloy around 22foot....some of those yank imports are nice but
One of those big sailboat ocean racing twin hull type of design in the 80-100 foot range, grind the mast away fit a couple of o/bs make all ammenties up front with big flat deck space up back with tenders/dorys, park it on a section of reef in in the middle of nowhere and stay for a month at a time..... one can dream!
cheers fnq

Curently have a Custom 5m Razerline Eclipse, but would love a 685 Cruisecraft or similar size Seafarer. 6.5 Evolution also looks the goods!
one where someone else pays my maintenace costs
