Ride on what? The GB or the potential "new" boat?
The new boat.
A friend of mine just purchased a Fortier 33 with Volvo diesels - I
think he said they are 225 hp turbo charged - don't quote me on that.
He's itching to get it in the water asap.
I'll give you a hint. Twin Yanmar 440 hp turbo diesels. That's all I am
going to say for now.

Last night, Mrs. Wave and me discussed the whole boat situation. The
upshot is that she would rather fly or drive to places she wants to go
rather than go via boat.
So I'm kind of free to pursue what I want.
Which means another Contender I'm thinking.
Or maybe a Fountain or Jupiter.- Hide quoted text -

My bud "has the keys" for a 30 foot Fountain, twin 225's down near Old
Saybrook. This hull was origionally a "Team Fountain" fishing rig.
Says as soon as it is back in the water if you want to take it out for
a day he can take us out. Sea trial, or just fishin' is ok with
him...
Let's do it.
Does it have the icebreaker option?- Hide quoted text -

Well, we have to wait till they drop it. I will ask him when it is
going back in.
I would guess the water temp in the Sound is in the low to mid 30's. I
was never insane enough to do "Winter Sound Fishing" when I lived in
Connecticut. What the hell would you be catching, other than pneumonia,
in those waters at those temps?
