We think we have found 4-5 of these within reasonable distance of our area. They are all within a reasonable price range.

Here's two examples of the five...

We are looking for a comfortable, roomy, liveaboard that is a capable cruiser.

I have a friend with a Hardin 45. He loves his boat and I think well of it too. Just as a concern to look at, and not an unsurmountable problem, take your best look at corrosion bleeding from those emb edded chain plates and how you will approach a replacemnt. I don't know if all the Hardins have the same difficulty in getting access to the chain plates. Take care and joy, Aythya crew
