After seeing several social media broadcasts dramatizing the coming hurricane, I thought about a parody. It was all fun and games when the storm was forecasted to go north of the bay. We got a little worried when the track went south at the last minute. Shortly after filming one of these clips the weather forecast showed the chance of the storm coming in to Banderas Bay, and it was hard to think of humorous weather parodies after that! The storm did a lot of damage, but Puerto Vallarta is recovering nicely. There is still power and water and internet outages throughout the bay, but this place recovers very quickly after major disasters. My compliments to all the hard working people at CFE and the government for taking such good care of everyone.

This DeFever 44 is bound to catch the eye of anyone looking for a reliable, comfortable, and capable cruiser—especially if you’re dreaming of long-range adventures or living aboard internationally. Designed by Arthur DeFever, a legend in the trawler world, this 44-foot flybridge motor yacht was his most popular model for good reason. It’s built tough with a solid fiberglass hull, a deep keel, and sturdy struts protecting the running gear, making it a seaworthy choice for tackling coastal waters. The displacement hull—steady and fuel-efficient—means you’re not burning through diesel like some lighter boats. You get a generous salon with a galley-up design—perfect for keeping the cook in the conversation—plus a full-beam master stateroom aft with a queen berth, ensuite head, and enough storage to settle in for months. The forward guest cabin has a V-berth for visitors, and the walk-in engine room is a mechanic’s dream—near stand-up headroom for easy maintenance. Add in the flybridge with its commanding views and roomy aft deck for lounging or entertaining, and you’ve got a boat that feels like a floating home without skimping on practicality. Owners love the walk-around decks for easy handling and the tender setup. For someone who values durability, comfort, and the freedom to roam, don’t let this one pass you by! This boat is owned by a US corporation and registered in Poland.
