. I have seen 18'
Bayliners 50 miles offshore, but the mfg'er would never call them an
offshore boat.


18' bayliner 50 mi. off shore?


Now THAT is taking ones life in their own hands!


I doubt an 18 footer could carry enough fuel to take it out 50 miles and
then back.


Well, I would say it probably would if you had it full of jerry cans
loaded with gas. And I can imagine there are those who would try it.
