Cored hull as well. Any opinions if the balsa is soaked up?

 

[Curmudgeon]

Core

If it is a cored Bruno that is the reason they are out of business. If it is solid glas it is a good sea boat.

 

[Surfishingboy]

Can you run it water logged?

 

[Curmudgeon]

I wouldn't, I'd find someone else to own it.

 

[Surfishingboy]

Thanks for the input.

that's the same year as my cored hull, not a problem with it, just don't drill a bunch of holes in it and it will be fine. if it already has water in it stay away.

Does the spice rack come with the vessel?

Can you run it water logged?

they run fine wet !

 

[Surfishingboy]

Do they fall apart if wet? Or just make them heavy?

 

[pugsley]

i know a wet roof will fall to pieces

 

[chasintail]

balsa is in between fiberglass like a sandwich fiberglass balsa fiberglass and they overbuilt usually on the fiberglass

 

[chasintail]

they get heavier and the ride is better

 

[Surfishingboy]

Will they fall apart?

 

[MDI45]

I never heard of things like tops and hulls falling apart because of wet balsa.....it just gets heavy and rots the balsa

 

[MDI45]

I would ask more questions about the motor...220 hp?....is not going to be a good enough power to push that boat above 10kts....so again you have to ask yourself ..WHAT AM I STARTING WITH...needs power.. needs new running gear...needs new top.....32,000....and you have to put another 70,000 to get her tuna fish ready...

I'm not buying the boat, However I did have some crazy ideas in my head. I don't need a fast boat. 10kts is fine for me in montauk. But I'm going to just buy a small 23ft boat and save my money until I can comfortably afford my next big downeast. Most likely a 35ft Duffy. Loved my 28Bhm but i wanted bigger.
