What's the smallest boat you've ever gone fishing in offshore which I

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.
