Hi guys, All very helpful. I agree with the stigma of a right off. Im happy to see through that and go on condition now plus the quality of the repair. Value wise he is asking $90k now, which I still think is a bit steep, though I take your point on the spec. It would be coming back to the UK if a d...

All very interesting. The boat has a value for sure - its a case of trying to establish what that value is. The seller appears to be upfront about the history. New engine in 09 seems to have covered the issue of the damaged original unit. All things considered its probably not worth 90k. Would still...

DF1000 TransAt?

Is it feasible for an experienced crew to cross the pond from the east coast of the US to Europe (via the Azores?) in a 1000?

Hi DH, Thanks for the info. It is that boat,t he broker has openly confirmed the boat has been repaired but has apparently been done to a high standard.

Hmm, Nothing comes up through google. I guess I will have an ask around. I see yours is hull #1 - so I guess 1994/1995? Bit old for what I am looking for at 100k. If anyone can give me any solid details that would be great, but I don't mind a repaired boat if it's been done right, especially as a 20...

Looking for a uk based joint purchaser

Long shot I know, but I am looking at a new D28 and due to amount of time I have to use a boat would be interested in buying jointly.
