Thanks for the info. I hoped that's what I'd hear. The one I'm looking at is a 1981. I guess the original owner didn't go for the LPG option so the seats don't open. I'll have to retrofit. I we do go for this boat, I may beg a tour of yours this winter. One of my criteria was that whatever boat we buy must be beautiful. I think the 37 fits the bill pretty well. Congrats on your new boat. Andy
