Boat Cabin Cruiser

I've always wanted a boat with enough room for a Small group or family outing with the kids and some friends. Can't afford a yacht and wouldn't want one anyways but a small boat with enough room for just a few would be great.

Where are you located?

Most other sites feed off of the bottom two sites so you might as well and go straight to the main sites for boat sales.

Some "Trusted" sites are:
1. http://www.boatus.com/classifiedads/defa ult.aspx?WT.mc_id=400008
2. http://www.boattrader.com/search/
3. http://www.luxuryyachtsforsale.org/yacht -trader/
4. http://www.boats.com/indexA.jsp

These sites have ads which are "REAL" ads that cost sellers money. These are all trusted sites and have good reputations. Hope you find what you're looking for. Stay away from the Craigslist and Ebay. Lots of scammers and "Phishers" there.

When you do find a boat, be sure to have it fully inspected by a Marine Surveyor and test drive the vessel on the water for at least 20 minutes to make sure everything runs and operates.

Alpex Weaverly cabin cruiser boat . The year is a 1965, 18'. I am restoring it and need a manual for it. The name of the company that built it would be great.

The Hull number ought to be on the safety approval plate. It's the metal tag, located in or near the skipper station or on the transom. It could also be stamped into the stringers near the engine.
I'm afraid I can't help more than that. I think that Alpex took over Alumacraft and itself was taken over by Timpte Industries although they seem to be just the holding company. Alumacraft is still in business and would be where I'd start. http://www.alumacraft.com/home.html . You may have luck there. Here's a link to that company aquisition I mentioned. It's on the last part of that page. http://www.timpte.com/history.htm

I have a friend who is working on restoring his 1963 starcraft cabin cruiser. we've tried searching the web countless times for parts. hes trying to make the boat look as close as possible to the original. But we're having difficulties finding pictures of the boat deck and cabin. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! thanks!!!

Well, I'm not sure this is the right boat, but this is the best thing I can find.... hope its right.

Which is more comfortable?
Which is easier to manoeuvre (and does it take long to get used to a long narrow boat)?
Which uses less fuel?

Should you want the freedom to use the whole of the presently available canal system, make sure you opt for a narrow (6' 10") beam boat, not a wide beam.
Obviously more room in a wide beam, but you are limited to just a handful of canals (because locks are 7' wide, hopefully), and stick with around a max of 50' in length since some locks are short. It's also easier to turn a shorter boat in a winding hole.
If you are really interested in seeing what's out there, why not come to Crick (Northamptonshire) this Bank Holiday weekend where there will be hundreds of boaters who will probably be happy to while away some time talking boats.
Lots of entertainment, food stalls, chandlery, new boats and used for sale.
My narrow boat is only 30' long (I did my Helmsman's Certificate on a 65'), and I could live on that quite happily (without husband!!); I usually take her to the Crick Boat Show, but don't have time this year to get there and back to the Marina so will be going by road with sleeping bag, to beg an overnight berth from another boat - boaters are such friendly people as a rule.
There isn't much to get used to - push the tiller to the right and she goes left; push it to the left and she goes right!
No brakes, just reverse! And as already mentioned narrow boats were built as work horses and well able to take a deal of abusive handling.
Just remember that everything is paid for by the foot - so the shorter a boat you can manage on, the less will be your annual outgoings.
