    I’ve been waiting years, centuries even, to see a Capt. Steve review of a Targa! Thank you for doing this and I’m looking forward to more!

    @captstevetests
    Great review. One item you didn't talk about is the true DNA of these boats. Over 1/2 of their boats end up as Oil Rig service boats, off shore research boats, artic research boats. No boat has the true DNA to be in any sea condition in any season. Also, over 70% of the boats weight is below the water line, making the boat virtually roll proof. The driving seating positon is the best in the world and that front drivers seat does move forward and Targa will customize that seat or any other part of the boat. Woulld love to see a sea trial. As an owner of a Botnia Targa 32, there is no other boat that is as cable, fast, efficient or as well put together as the Botnia Targa, they are in class by themselves. As a side note, the employees and owner, 3rd generation family owned are truly exceptional.

    I've been on Targas for years as they are common here in Finland where they are based. Targas are like mini ships and go through rough seas like nothing, even the significantly smaller Targa 27.2.
    Targas are *not* for beginners though, as many new to boating don't see where all the money is going (the hull, the weight, the build quality). It's rather your fifth or sixth boat when you know whats important.

    Targa make awesome boats, by my goodness you're going to do backflips when you finally get the Targa 41 over there. My guess is Seattle 2025 but that's just a Quasimodo hunch not a Nostradamus prediction.

      PS the LED light strips are especially for the Nordic-area seas. They have a lot of rocks out there, a lot, they get marked with reflective strips and wide-angled high-power LED strips pick them up. They're not necessarily waters you want to be piloting "dark" with a low-light camera.

    Thanks Steve. Targas are tough as nails but this model does not seem very comfortable. The seats in the aft cockpit with no backrests except straight up railings must get painful quickly. Some of the spaces inside seem constricted. The hatch and companionway to the forward cabin look tough to access for a big person. Access around the sides of the motors looked cramped. Some of the other Targas look a lot better to me.

    • @captstevetests
      @captstevetests  Před 3 měsíci +1

      You're spot on but a lot of what is seen in this model are optional. there are more comfortable seats etc. It's pretty easy to dial this boat in to your specific needs. Thanks for the feedback and thanks for watching.

    • @natetennant1432
      @natetennant1432 Před 3 měsíci

      I can tell you as a boat, these are no "Girly boat" their DNA is as research boats. There is no other capable or comfortable boat when it gets snotty out on the ocean. You will routinely see Targas running in -40 F temperatures breaking through several inches of ice in the pitch black darkness of the artic circle. Their entire ethos is form over function.

      @@captstevetests : I'm not anti social, but I don't have a family or go boating with a lot of people. Would love to spec one of these out to suit. Extra large, double or triple size wet head instead of berths that would not be used Tailored storage spaces, a much expanded galley with less and differently configured saloon seating and on and on ..............
      Great boats, I really like the 41. I think Sargo has a new 45 too.
