Best video's on the web:-) We are looking at a new 28 cabin next week. Can't wait. We will be using her for weeks at a time so I need to figure out storage for all the extra stuff. I guess cooking will be on a Colemen, showers on the aft deck, pots pans and food will need to be stored somehow. Mostly we would be 3 to 4 days between re-supplies but when we are headed to Alaska we need at least a weeks worth of supplies or more. Plus spare parts for the engines etc. Including one extra prop. I used a spare prop before on our last boat. But it was for a partner vessel, same engines. I know the 28 is not designed for what we are going to be doing, but I will make it work. Thanks Dan for all the awesome info. Maybe you could speak to the 28's long term stays on the water.
Very nice tour, Dan. Special kudos to Nick on the cam- steady, calm hand, none of these jerky shots so may of these videos have ! Compliments, gentlemen !
Twins only:-) Why does anyone run a single? Althugh my last boat was a single and kicker combo. And I had to use that kicker to get home once. I'll never go single again.
this is brokers all round absolutely no clue.If you have any money and are considering buying an Italian build.save yourself the money ask the actual crew how to make improvements.
Nice boat, but if you jump in the sea down there, you get eaten by sharks, if not by salt water crocs, if not by poisonous octopuses , if not by deadly belly fish, and so goes on....
I had a 2003 340 with the 8.1 v drives . I felt those engines were a perfect match for the 340 . I’ve always loved the 380, but was concerned power might be borderline with gas engines . Can anyone share experience of cruise speed and top speed of this configuration ?
I live in the US, and this guy knows how to review a boat! I know this posting is 3 yrs old, but I still think it needs to be commended. I'm guessing once you buy from Dan, he will be your boat rep forever. I've been to boat shows and have owned a boat. I share this b/c I know the process of showing a boat and Dan excels. I just subscribed and hope he is still in the business. P.S. @3:28 you talk about space for two boyfriends.....what if a person has three? lol. (just making a joke) 😂
I already know that people are going to leave that rear seat back, forget about it, trim the motors up while underway and smash the heck out of it. That will be a very expensive mistake.
