Such great info. Generator maintenance sounds doable. Have heard the hook referred to several times...where is that?We started out with an '06 260DA and had all options except for the TV and DVD player which were outdated by 2014 anyway. We loved "camping on the hook." Having the gen meant we always had hot water, AC, and the battery charger. Maintenance on the gen was a once/year oil change, 2-plugs every 2 years, and an impeller every 2-3 years. We also kept it on a trailer. Loved the way we could go where we wanted and when we wanted. I miss that part.
Get a good hull surveryor and at a minimum, get a compression check on the engine and gen. We bought our 260 from a private sale and used the seller's broker for our 44DB.
I have never heard one good thing about POP YACHTS and would run away from them.
