I LOVE Hatteras, Grand Banks, all of those. But the Four cabin, Four head you bought is The BOAT that I truly love !! For the Great Loop OR the Sacramento Delta and S.F. Bay. I LOVE your boat and IF I had the money I'd give your asking price ! Great boats throughout your videos with only a couple that were actually junk. Still watching!

We are super rich indeed… rich with love and experience and dreams and drive. The cool part about the loop is that you don’t have to be rich to do it. You just need the desire and the drive to figure it out.

The Nordhaven definitely my number 1 choice but really expensive. I still go to with the ol reliable Hatt. But the Grand Banks has the wow effect. Whom am I kidding? They’re all nice and I’ll take any of them😉👍😀😀

I kinda like the outer reef trident. It would be a awesome loop boat but they crammed too much on the main deck for my liking. I need room to breathe outer reef! 😂 but no it’s perfect for the loop the top lowers hydraulically and I believe it’s a 4’ draft

In the bang-for-buck category…Have you looked at Roughwaters (Ed Monk)? We love ours, and always get comments on her beautiful classic lines. She has a very shallow draft. Ours has a bow thruster which makes maneuverability easy! They’re always in demand and tend to hold their value. Remember, the bigger the boat, the more all-around costs in fuel and slip rates. Larger boats are harder to find available slips for, so that’s definitely worth considering. Ideally, it’s best to go with the smallest boat you can comfortably withstand (unless you can’t stand your boat mates, in which case, The Queen Mary wouldn’t be big enough).

Thanks for reaching out! Ed Monk was a great naval architect! We actually are 5800 miles into our Great Loop and we have loved our Ocea Alexander 56 that we purchased! Thanks for watching!

Voyagers have a great comfort level floorplan. But if the Hatteras is in good working order, I'd go with the HAT

Hatteras are great boats for sure! The tricky part is finding one in good working order.

Great share!!! Can you please comment on the maximum boat draft possible when spending additional time in the northern section of the Great Loop by traversing the Erie, the Rideau, and the Trent Severn canals. I believe each of these canals present different depth / draft limitations. Many Thanks!!!

@TheBoomershines

3 ай бұрын

We did the Erie and the Trent with a 4.5' draft. We had buddy boats with a 5' draft and all the ones with a 5' draft had prop damage of some sort along the way. We did not have any prop damage. So technically you can go up to 5' but just plan for some down time to repair or switch props. I don't know about the Rideau. Hope that help!

@Tnapvrvideo

What is the air draft of these boats? I think that this best boat or even minimum acceptable boat is make or break on the drafts.

We learned on our Loop draft is way more important than air draft. Anything over 5 feet gets really tricky (and expensive) for the boats we traveled with that had deep drafts. Luckily we we were 4’6” draft. ⚓️Mark

@TheBoomershines

2 жыл бұрын

@@alanrossshadix8717 Yes. Both air draft and water draft are a concern with a Nordhavn on the Loop. Both as a result of Nordhavn's amazing blue water cruising characteristics. Air draft because they utilize a dry stack exhaust which eliminates a through hull exhaust, and water draft because of the bulbous bow and full keep making it a full displacement vessel. ⚓️Mark

@alanrossshadix8717

2 жыл бұрын

My point - Nordhavn Owners seem to manage currents very well as they literally cruise the world. So, low speed Trawlers (with acceptable air and water drafts like Krogen) should be capable of handling the currents encountered on the loop. But, I understand the personal preference for more speed.
