Depends on the sailor....a girlieman like you and some of your ilk in
here shouldn't venture outside the harbour approaches unless you're
aboard an ocean liner.......for me...a 17.5 foot runabout should be fine.

Sounds like a death wish.



I take my 18' bass boat 6 miles offshore to the reef on good days. I can
get back in less than 15 minutes if the horizon looks dark.
