Do you have any before and after photos of the Painted interior? We did the spray insulation (mascoat) followed by spraying 2 coats of latex interior paint on the 24TC and loved how it brightened up the space and made it newer looking inside. I would do the 255 as well, but still remember...

We saw your boat there this weekend. Hard to connect the boats names with the forums id's. Do you keep your boat in a slip there? I think I saw you there the last time as well.

Glad to see that you got that taken care of. You looked frustrated when I saw you at FH and after reading the diagnostics you went through to find the problem, I can see why. Good to get that nice fish in the end.

I hope you do not need to fill your tanks while at West Beach. My brother in law got gas there this weekend because it is non-ethanol fuel. He only put around 12 gallons though when he saw that it was priced at $5.69 per gallon. Yiiikes!!!

Feels like every time we go to Friday Harbor its a c-brats gathering (5-6 boats there). Not sure if they are members here. Glad to see StarcraftTom though. We were going to play a joke on him by removing the fish from his cooler that his friend Steve said was caught earlier. Wasn't in the...

Even with your calculation, you are still smaller than some of the boats we encountered at Roche Harbor this weekend. Amazing how much $$$ was attached to the docks there. We even saw a 3 level power catamaran that was 80+ feet long and 20+ wide. Complete with statues inside!!! Any c-dory...

Roger Do you get pretty hot under that thing?

Anybody got suggestions for King Salmon, Shrimp, or Crab spots near Roache Harbor?

You can heat it with a heat gun or hair dryer to make it pliable and then work it back in using a plastic putty knife.

I have gotten much better over time, but I still have some anxiety when in tight quarters or parallel parking in between two boats (one in front and one behind). I really need to master the spring line techniques as there have been several times that this could have come in handy to docking or...

I wanted to provide an update to answer some questions I have received about the boat. I will try to explain its construction and design as best as possible as this seems to have created some questions here and elsewhere. First, regarding the cantilevered roof. It sits approximately 18 inches...

Yeah, I want to post the ad there but have not given much thought to how I would create the ad (banner). Anybody have any experience where they could take my boats profile photo and create the ad? If so, I would love to advertise it here.

I do not believe it is for sale. I am familiar with the boat primarily because I purchased the trailer from a dealer that this boat's owner previously used. They sold the trailer and replaced with the triple axle trailer seen in the photos. When I inquired as to why the owner was selling...

Thanks for the heads up. I will avoid POP Yachts. Anybody have opinions on Boattrader or recommendations on other places to list to garner additional exposure?

A dealer told me about it and I asked to see photos cause I just couldn't picture it. Never did see them till now. Not my cup of tea, but then again I never fish for tuna.

Just wanted to update that our boat is still available. We have received a few inquiries, but nothing that was serious or anywhere close to our asking price. We did get a call from POP Yachts strangely enough. Can someone please let me know what is their business practice that people say to be...

For anyone offering prop suggestions, our highest priority is maximizing midrange cruising MPG. Top speed is a distant 2nd.

I can appreciate your advice for keeping the props for high altitude. Where we are, there is so much good opportunity for boating that there is very little desire to travel far with this heavy of a load. The furthest we would likely trailer the boat would be to the coast to have better...

Alright after 10 days being listed here with moderate interest, I am moving the boat to craigslist and boat trader. Anybody have any other suggestions for good places to list this boat. If it doesn't sell after that, you will see a 2008 Tomcat 255 up for sale instead.

I can agree with what others here have said. Having 2 engines provides the margin of safety backup in the event that one engine has a mechanical failure. Also, one of the best virtues of the Tomcats is their ability to go fast in chop and to maneuver in tight quarters. I think if you went...
