Hi,
We're another Searay family based out of the UK. Right now we have a 280DA after owning a 240DA and 230OV previously. Ohana is based in Poole which gives us a pretty good cruising ground. Our plan this year is to take the 60mile trip across the English Channel to France. This will be done in company with our friends who own a 260.
She comes out of the water next weekend for her pre-season service, anti foul etc. etc. 6 weeks later she'll be back in and we'll start using her. We can't wait!!
We'll be making the most of it this year as our European Cousins have insisted that our Goverment raise fuel duty for marine use. This is likely to come into effect at the back end of this year. This will mean a 100% increase in the cost of fuel.
I'll be in Nashville in a couple of weeks on business. Any recommendations on marine stores in the local area? The last time I flew in I noticed a lot of marinas etc. just before Nashville.
Also, if I get time I'm going to try to get to Knoxville to visit the Searay plant. Is there a factory tour available?
Ian.
