Forget the constant upgrade cycle! I'm showing you my 74-foot beauty—a vessel I'd confidently point toward any ocean on Earth right now. We're talking thousands of miles every summer proving this platform's grit, even with electronics older than some of my crew! Planning epic group adventures up to Georgia and the Broughtons? We manage it flawlessly with a naturalist and mechanic onboard to handle anything. Plus, if you want to truly learn to handle a boat, I use the San Juans every spring to put students right at the helm. Supervision is key, but the hands-on experience is priceless. Reliability beats flashing screens every time. #UnitedYachtSales #LuxuryYachtTour #ExpeditionYacht #YachtMaintenance #OwnerQandA #TrawlerYacht #RobinsonModifiedMonk #ElizabethRuth #CustomYacht #YachtRefit #YachtLens #BlueWaterYacht #BoatWalkthrough #PacificNorthwestYachts #trawler #longrangecruising #boattravel #yachtlife #marineelectronics #oceancrossing #boatingtips #powerboat

This vessel, Elizabeth Ruth, has been my entire world—from childhood dreams to a 40-hour work week on the water, plus every vacation stacked on top. I poured my soul into the complete rebuild and refit of every system, and she has been magnificent. Yet, moving on is perhaps the most difficult choice I've faced in years. It’s simply time to trade the helm for a new horizon and allow someone else the immense joy of caring for this incredible boat. This is the story behind saying farewell. #BoatWalkthrough #UnitedYachtSales #OwnerQandA #ElizabethRuth #RobinsonModifiedMonk #PacificNorthwestYachts #TrawlerYacht #ExpeditionYacht #BlueWaterYacht #CustomYacht #YachtRefit #YachtLens #LuxuryYachtTour #YachtMaintenance #boatforsale #yachtlife #sailboat #boatingadventures #vessel #marine #difficultdecision #refit #cruising #goodbye
