T&T: Fwd: Gulf Star 43'

My '78 Gulfstar 44 Motor Crusier is full displacement (it has never been
north of 9 kts) and has hard chines.

The survey introductory description states:

"The 44' Gulfstar 44 Motor Cruiser marked marked Gulfstar's entry into the
modern motor yacht market when introduced in 1978.  While she has a motor
yacht look, she is built on a full displacement trawler-type hull with hard
chines, a deep keel and relatively flat after section."

As previously posted, it is not stabilized and can in a lumpy sea get a
little rolly.
