Re: PDQ32+
Looks nice. I'm thinking of having it done on my new 32 LRC. I'm thinking that with the extra weight in the LRC this would be even more of a benefit. Amytom, was yours a DIY or did you have it done? I have zero experience with fiberglass and will need to find someone in Florida to do it. Any recomme...

Blocking for PDQ 32 LRC
Well, I finally did it. I bought a '97 PDQ 32 LRC, previously named Island Fever, soon to be re-named Terrapin. She will be located in Punta Gorda and kept on the hard this first summer at Safe Cove Boat Storage (5 months). My first question: The PDQ 32 manual recommends supporting the boat with two...

Re: 32 Classic #3 Catrina for Sale
May I ask why you replaced the Yamaha's with Tohatsu? How do they differ?
Thanks

Re: Yamaha 8 vs 9.9
I believe that at one point the 8 was the only thing available that would fit. The 9.9 at that point was a detuned 15 and too big. I could be wrong though. The two boats I'm looking at were well after the 9.9 was standard. One is a '95 and one is a 2000. The ad for the 2000 boat says the Yamaha 8's...

Yamaha 8 vs 9.9
I'm still looking at PDQ 32's and I have seen quite a few with Yamaha 8s instead of 9.9s. Are the 8's just 9.9s with different carburation? I'm not sure why someone would want to sacrifice HP, however small. Is there another reason why one would choose the 8 over the 9.9? Price, fuel economy etc? Sh...

Cockpit table?
I am in the market for a PDQ 32 and looking at all the different boats, I have yet to see one with a table in the cockpit, though I'm sure that some of you have solved that problem with a removable pedestal or something. Eating out in the cockpit at a table is one of my favorite times on a boat, asi...

PDQ's at Strictly Sail?
Hello I have been lurking on this board for a couple of years, learning everything I can about PDQ (32s and 36's). I've bareboated Lagoons and Mahe's, and looked at several PDQs but have yet to sail on one. I will be at Strictly Sail in Miami and have a free day on Tuesday the 18th. I thought I'd ch...

Traveler on the bimini?
I've been looking at PDQ 36's and noticed that the newer models (1999 and later?) have the traveler mounted on top of the bimini instead of at the rear of the cockpit. I would worry that that would be a lot of extra stress on the bimini. On the other hand, it opens up the rear of the cockpit. Anyone...

Re: PDQ36.com
Great site. For those of us in the market for PDQs, your list of the different boats and their sale price is invaluable. One suggestion: the music is great, but you need some way to turn it off when you want to listen to something from another program, You Tube for example. There is a pause button o...

Re: PDQ 32 LRC
Yes, that is a nice looking boat. A 36 would be my first choice if I can afford one. I have yet to sail either though! I am still conflicted about the diesel/outboard choice though. I've read all the threads and know the advantages/trade-offs of each. At this point the lighter weight, simplicity and...

PDQ 32 LRC
Hi everyone. I'm new to this forum, but active on Cruisers Forum. I'm seriously interested in a PDQ 32 for long term Caribbean cruising, just the two of us. The "Deborah Lee" is for sale and is a LRC model. I would imagine the LRC is slower under sail than the outboard models due to more w...
