sounds like a  great deal. I have always like pilothouse boats as liveaboards.

I hope so, I just bought one.

The upper salon area will be a great place to setup my laptops so I can work from the boat. I still have to figure out mounting maybe 3  28' monitors that can swing away so I can work, then stow 2 of them away. Had thought about something that swings down from the salon ceiling but will have to figure that one out a bit better.

I saw your boat last year befor Scott ever posted links 

not sure how he is running this place but it took an act of God to pass 7 spam filters using a cellphone

 and registering 3 times  because my other accounts were locked for no apparent reason 

I researched this boat up and down and found nothing besides your boat 

You are literally one of a handful to

have a pilothouse de41 like mine 

as they were some of the last boats produced by the factory according to year 

and number 

 I even considered shooting you an offer 

because your boat is everything I wanted 

but I bought this one for 25,000

considering there is a 45 for 88k nearby and a 38 for 50k and a 32 de for 40k

other boat owners and individuals I've met are already acting jealous, angry or worse 

that I scored such a deal, 

 better yet no loans and my own terms

 and I wrote my own lease to own agreement  and had it notarized 

i spent 12 hours today removing a entire dumpsters worth of random crap from the boat 

And steam cleaning 

Now I have a boat to mount my solar panels on  

Half my things are on board now land about to move out of the small house I have onto the de41

   I am the current owner of a 41 pilothouse and I couldn't be happier with the boat.  There is currently a 41 for sail in San Diego and you can access it pictures through YACHTWORLD and do a search for downeaster 41.  He has a nice bunch of photos.

my name is Nigel 

I'm a marine diesel mechanic on whidbey island 

i searched far and wide for a suitable first 

boat that I can live on and sail 

I'm checking out a 41 Downeaster pilot house 

that is in desperate need of a new owner w

I have seen it on here but little info on it 

it was named the snow goose 

i would love to see the inside of other pilot houses 

for any ideas or any old pics of this boat 

I have read all the posts in the forum in advance
