So my Ex-Wife nixed my repower idea of 2 turbines with Arneson's and the 55 JigaWatt nuclear reactor to power the 1.5 million watt electric motor for the KamWae waterjet, total killjoy she is.

I bought it to fix and flip but my stupid wife fell in love with it so I guess I'm keeping it, the plan is to put it in a charter along with my Islander Freeport 36 I bought at auction 3 months ago.

My buddy bought the trawler a year ago ago to go fulltime cruising after selling his 45 Jefferson he and his wife lived on fulltime at Salty Sams . He dumped a ton of money into it before it went to Diversified Yachts to get the new Yanmars installed.. They just splashed it and did a sea trial 2 days before the hurricane so it got a little dock rash.

My sailboat pics so brace your eyes. My Freeport and my Hunter 26 I bought out of auction. The Freeport fell off the stands and got a hole in the side but was just trucked down from Colorado a couple years ago so it is in awesome shape for a 40 year old boat, and has a brand mew beta diesel and new sails.

Hunter was too cheap not to buy , cost me more to get loaded than I'm paid. Lift kept and new interior

More pics of the great harbor 37 I won't post the damage because I don't want the history all over the internet, I splash on Tuesday than up to the yard and repair it .

Goal is have it finished by mid April than take the wife and sister inlaw and mother-in-law down to the Tortugas for a week than return and pick up my 2 buddies and his 25 foot center console Robalo and dive compressor and head back down to the Tortugas and slaughter a butt load of fish spearfishing.

l'll buy a big freezer before we head down. 4 dives a day with 3 guys will fill everything up in days if a shark doesn't get me , last time I spearfished off Tampa bay a Bullshark got a little too curious for comfort than proceeded to follow me all the way to the surface ,I ended up tossing my stringer of fish to save my butt.

Good times. I can't wait.

If you need a 4th, a fifth or even a 6th person for this trip, let me know. Sounds like a good time. We have our own trawler, spearguns and dive equipment, but lack the experience and knowledge of the Tortugas

Its been a few years since i last dove the Tortuga's so hopefully not much has changed, being they didn't move the Park boundaries out further to deeper water, last dive the boundaries were 65 feet and deeper, if i can prefer staying above 50 feet.

Always liked the diving off Big Pine In the Keys also . Cay Sal Bank is awesome too.

What do you have for a trawler ?

Huge unplanned commitment for me , I would like to cruise the East coast in a couple years than come back down and shoot across the
Panama canal and up the West Coast thru Puget Sound up to Alaska I'm not real interested in doing the great loop as I grew up Cruising all over the Great Lakes in my dads 48 ' sailboat in the 70s and that push coming down the Tom Tom is Boring.
