The best thing about this site is the different views....
Yesterday i spent some time on a 45 ft. Tiara...must be about 900,000 dollars or so...and i would not trade my Ranger or my previous boats (including a C Dory 22) for that boat. It is beautiful in its own way...but just not for me, even if i could afford it.
Same with speed. When i was very young i shipped out on T2 tankers with Sun Oil and Atlantic Refining, out of Marcus Hook, Pa. Slow, wallowing boats, and with a tendency to break up in major storms..they were welded together at the half way point! But i loved the experience.
I've been caught out on the Chesapeake in very bad weather...and learned to take the slowness of my craft into consideration when making my plans.
And if the fuel prices keep going, I may revise my 8kts down to 6!

Hello Greg,
I will be at Trawlerfest Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Be sure to look me up if you have any questions. We are also bringing up an R25 Friday afternoon with the 150 Cummins that will be available to sea trial.
I look forward to seeing you there.
