This is the Egg Harbor model I had: http://meetbliss.com/EggHarbor/EggMain.jpg ==== Nice, probably a bit on the small side for the open ocean however. We're seeing mostly 50 to 60 footers in the Out Islands. Some of them tow a 30 to 35 ft center console behind them for day fishing in good weather. |

Speed was what it was all about then for chartering but the lightened design makes a big difference in heavier seas, something I noticed right away. I have a friend with an old, heavy Hatteras of about the same size with DD 671s. I could run circles around him until the seas started getting snotty. Then he had the advantage. But for occasional fishing trips in decent weather it was good. Fast and highly maneuverable at the dock. It was like a sports car compared to the Navigator. But for overall comfort and performance (for it's size) in heavier seas, the Navigator was outstanding. It was built like a tank. |

My son in South Carolina is keeping an eye out for a boat that I might be interested in. Here's one he just found and emailed me about. Right. Beautiful boat but a bit much for dear old dad ... http://www.paulmanncustomboats.com/p...nter/completed Junk. |
