What the heck would you know about driving a *real* boat through a

Maybe he took a 16' boat out of Deale
That can be exciting on a windy day.

I think the biggest boat that harry has actually owned was the 24 ft
Parker. Not a bad boat for the Chesapeake on a moderately calm day
but not my choice for going offshore any distance. Apparently the
fuel burn on the 24 was too much for him as I recall.


I did a lot of bay fishing in my 21'er. Always had folks willing to be a 'boat ho'
for the day, so it must not have been too bad. We never went out if the small craft
warnings were posted.
