Pacific does have a couple nice ones, but the engines have a lot of time on them and I image the interiors show their age as well?

Actually they ride pretty damn well. Never ridden in one but have been along side one running from Calvert to Port Hardy. There was only a few built by Reinke Fabrication in Bellingham. Originally designed as a yacht tender for the company owner that has a Bayliner 4788. The last thing I need is another boat but ism tempted to go look at it. Most of them are powered by twin 90hp four strokes and that old Suzuki is just a time bomb waiting to go off.

I am with FD on this one. I would not discount this hull as it has that bit of a "cat type" design which is way better into a swell than a mono hull.

From the pictures, the tunnel on that cat looks low. With cats, waves hitting the tunnel at speed can result in tunnel slap, or the dreaded "cat sneeze". However, I would guess most of the time, in up to a 2' chop, this would run very smoothly.

Looks like I'll be guiding this summer so I will likely buy a smaller rig than the original plan as it won't see much use. Was going to put an offer in on this but she sold yesterday. Would have been a fun camping/inshore rig.

I assume that those of you waiting on the Bridgeview skiffs are probably about done waiting...
Have to admit that I'm not sold on "NOPTH KING" as a lodge name though.
God that middle one was beautiful.

I think they'd go for a pretty penny if they did sell...not a lot of miles on her from what I could see.
