Would you go out 100 miles out with someone who had bought a boat on a the recommendation of an internet forum?

Or am I being too harsh - if so I apologise.
Nope i think your on the money either that or someone ain't done a bit of home work.

Bearing in mind that Perigrin (Lochaline) is 44' and is only a day boat and the Jane R is 22m and is a liveaboard.

There is no way you are only to get me on something which is only 18m.

Me thinks we have a bit of a joker

What? The Peregrine is, as you say, a day boat and at 14m that's no surprise. 22m is nearly 70 ft which is pretty big.

I used to spend the whole summer living on board a 33 foot (that's 10m) boat. 18m is plenty big enough ya big wuss.

jmascarenhas2 saw the sea in a book once
well the dive center is in Portugal.
The 100 miles is were lays some under watter will (120m-25m) wich are full of life.
My initial choice was a 42' Botina Targa. But they can just deliver on Set 2007.
The secin choice was a Lochin, but due to the size of the boat they recomend something bigger.
I Have seen a Cougar Cat with 17m but I'm suspitius about the use of a tiwn Hull.

The berths are to be used only to the Live aboard regimen. when doing day trips the ocupation should increase.
This was not my frist post (I had a problem with my email and had to change the user jmascarenhas)
Has this was one of my frist Dive foruns, and one of the best in the UK I posted this thread.
