BB and I went to the boat show (Mike stayed over Saturday night). I'd hoped to look at express cruisers and trawlers. There were a number of interesting express cruisers but not a single trawler. I liked the Saber 38. It has a great cockpit, good decks, good sight lines, and adequate accommodations. Not bad looking either but BB was less enthused. Even so I may go down to Falmouth to sea trial it next weekend.
Curiously,BB liked some of the Sea Rays! I'd expected the other way around.
After looking at several I liked some of the 36 to 38 ft boats. They didn't have the storage of the Saber but were still entirely workable and ultimately had a similar layout. There are a number of similar boats and, of course, there are MANY used Sea Rays on the market. Perhaps one thing to consider is buying one and try weekending/week long trips to get BB used to the idea.
Mike stayed over Saturday night without incident. I remain concerned about getting pulled back in but also about his future. He doesn't really seem to care and thus there isn't much that can be done to direct him.
