What's the smallest boat you've ever gone fishing in offshore which I
guess could be defined as out in the ocean out of sight of land?

Carolina Skiff J-14 for me on a calm day out of Panacea Florida into the
Gulf of Mexico.

How about you?

A few miles offshore on the Atlantic side of Florida in a slightly larger
CS, and farther out, 20 miles out, in an 18' SeaPro. But I always saw
lots of guys way way out in what I considered boats far too small,
especially for Florida, where the weather can change quickly.

Panacea? Wow. Ever eat at Angelo Petrandis' restaurant there? First-class
seafood, just before the bridge there. I always wanted to spend a few
days around there but never had the opportunity.



I think I know what restuarant you mean, on the left, right near the
bridge. I never ate there but wished I did.

This is a very strange usenet group with just a handful of boaters, I
guess and a lot of guys who dislike you but most of them don't seem to be
boaters. Strange.

This idiot krause is one of the few NON boaters here, he's never owned a
boat but posted fake photos & histories just as he did for you.

If you get taken in by him then that's your lookout but be careful he's a
nasty bit of work once he figures you might actually check &/or be able to
check on his lies.

As for the question, for me a 32ft steel sloop years ago in the coral sea,
never a problem with the boat's size, it want all over the place over the
years. I did many trips mostly in the galley in those unenlightened
days:-) The longest single leg I did was just over 800 miles, mostly
downhill in the trade winds, after the fist few days you settle down & it
becomes your safety place, funny thing is when you make landfall you get
all nervous about leaving the boat.

Below is a few more of the Krause "I am"


That's pretty cool. The Coral Sea, as in *THE* Coral Sea of World War II
fame? Even cooler! 800 miles in a small boat would make me antsy.

I wish you would stop this Krause stuff of yours. It just makesyours posts
longer and I don't read those parts and I don't think anyone else does
either. Why don't you move on?
