Questions on a Hunter Legend 35

[QUOTE="... and CNG is no where to be found in the greater Baltimore area. ..., as does the hull. Basically, we are trying to factor the costs of repairs/upgrades against a reasonable price. Thanks again![/QUOTE]

Going from Annapolis to BWI, before you get to the big parkinglots, on the west side of the road, are signs for a CNG Refill Station.

Hi Ron,
Thanks for the info. I did see that source online. It is a filling station for CNG powered vehicles. I got all excited, thinking this was a solution to the fuel problem. However, those vehicles have a particular type of inlet. In order to use their dispenser to fill the type of bottle used on a boat requires a special adapter. It seems those adapters are no longer sold, because there have been pressure changes to the dispensers? I have been doing a lot of on-line research and it can be very confusing. The bottom line is this, a CNG stove is becoming less and less viable. They seem to be going the route of cassette tapes...many people still have and use them, but there isn't any future for them. Regards, Jack

I want to thank everyone for being so free and helpful with information. I have learned a lot. Unfortunately, my wife and I have decided to pass on this particular boat. There are just too many repairs and upgrades needed. The price would have to be significantly lower than it currently is to make it a reasonable purchase for us. We think that it would be better to pay a little more and get something that fits our needs/wants now, rather than after a lot of work and expense. The good news is we now have a solid idea of what we want and what is a reasonable price to pay. We are leaning very strongly towards a Hunter as the best value for the money. We especially are drawn to the Legend series in the 1989 and up, 33' to 35' range. There are enough boats out there that we are sure we can find the right boat at the right price. So the search continues!
