You could probably charge admission for that cruise. I'm sure most real boaters would jump at a chance to take that voyage.

"Canadians already can.
It might be an exciting trip in an 18' open boat but lots of Cubans
have done it in less."

I might be up for it but don't know if I could put up with the wife's screaming if the seas got up to 3 feet or more. ;-)

Hitch a ride with Wayne.

Three foot seas can be uncomfortable even in a 50 footer if they are
steep, closely spaced and you're banging into them. If they're long
lazy swells however you hardly notice, especially from astern.
