[QUOTE="ppine, post: 458720, member: 22555"] Large boats cost a lot. My Dad had a 42 footer for years. It has twin Ford Lehman diesels and held 400 gallons of fuel in 3 different tanks for cruising in the San Juan Islands of Washington. Filling the tanks could cost $1,600 or more. I would not want to run the Miss R in a boat like yours. Its kind of like RVs. Some people love big rigs. But they are hard to tow and do not fit everywhere. Depending on how it has been taken care of, a 1970 vintage power boat can cost a lot to keep in shape. I wish you nothing but good luck with your purchase. You may need some. [/QUOTE]
