Welcome aboard. ... the whole world is in a lock down ! Hopefully the vaccine will start up quickly so you can enjoy that boat of yours this summer!
Happy holidays

Thanks!!
I still have to try the boat .. it is very well maintained and has the new engine from 2015 Mercruiser 5.7 bravo3, duoprop ... now 90 hours, I hope it goes well on the Greek sea, in the afternoon there it has an annoying wave, which before with my 2150REGAL I was fine ... do you have experience on rough seas? Merry Christmas to you and your family..Armido

Hi Armido, I have a 1997 2400 SCR that I repowered in 2016 with a 5.7 Vortec long block and kept my 4bbl carb. The boat already had a Bravo 2 drive. I boat on the Chesapeake Bay with a typically wave height of 1-1.5 ft but can get to over 3 ft high and the typical wave period is 2.2 seconds. Under the typical wave conditions the boat handles very well but when the wave height gets 2.5-3+ ft I have to slow down and spray will break over the boat. Others have boated in higher wave height but with a much longer period.

Modena looks far from Greece. Are you moving there?

And near Atokos there are little uninhabited islets (Formikula) where there are the last specimens of monk seals .. I have seen and filmed them many times ... show!
