Re: CX25 Questions for Jacques
I second that thought. Maybe with a 11 - 12 foot beam?

Re: Boat names and nautical puns?
Anywhere I go I like to be the sparty pants guy that everyone else basically facepalms, laughs, " ba dump dump" (poor comedy drums), and / or the verbal reaction of "really??" I keep tossing between "Reefer", "Sea Ya Later", and "I Sea Fish". Once mi...

Re: Derek's dream
I definitely want to meet Richard I pass by his back yard a few times a year in the fall / winter seasons (this year being the only exception I hope). Everyone on here are good folk that I've seen and will get to know and meet over the years. I honestly mean the thank yous to everyone for all the id...

Re: Derek's dream
Fuzz,
I prefer to either anchor or drift as I fish. My primary target species is grouper and snapper. Though I wouldn't complain if I caught other kinds of fish.

Re: Derek's dream
NOAA is pretty good at predicting weather out to about 20 miles with a different forecast for near shore out to 10 miles for the GoM. Its come second nature checking those reports a few days and day of a fishing trip, even for a head/charter boat. For longer trips I can look at raw data from at sea....

Re: Derek's dream
After taking the advice of the board, I'm going to drop the HP to twin 115hp outboards. Joe2700, I appreciate the suggestion of the single main with a kicker, but do not feel comfortable going 10+ miles out with that setup, as I need to make sure my wife doesn't over heat on the excursions (medical ...

Re: Derek's dream
