    Questions/concerns about possibly purchasing a 228 Seafarer...

    Keep looking! I'm in California and I shopped for over a year (mostly on the east coast) before buying my 228 from the second owner in North Carolina.

    Binoculars

    Well they came today, first off I guess I read the add wrong? I thought it was a lot of 3 for $99, my mistake. So first impression I like them, very sharp and clear, the true test will be on the water. I'm not sure I would have paid $99 for one?

    Is the guy who caught the giant tuna here

    Can it! Jalapeno tuna caned in pint jars will last years and people love getting it as gifts. I canned a 170 lb. tuna 3 years ago, nothing left all gone.

    Recommendations for Salmon net on 232

    I could never net a fish off of my stern with with the swim step and outboard we always bring them up to the side. I think they have a minimum size net requirement for salmon here in Ca. You might want to check because 22" is small.

    Transportation from sw Florida to Massachusetts

    My experience with you ship is bids are very reasonable, the beauty of it is you just keep getting bids until you like what you read. Not sure what you mean by due diligence?

    Transportation from sw Florida to Massachusetts

    Well I used U-ship last May to haul a 228 seafarer from North Carolina to Ca. He hauled if on my trailer and it was right around $3000 and I can't say enough good things about the driver.
