Good info, thanks!

I just checked and realized that without the aft jump seats, the 18' Key
West actually has 8 rod holders *plus* storage for 4 more. Now, what would

thinking of taking up 'drift fishing' with 12 lines out at once.

Don't get a good hook knife. My preference was to carry a Jack The

I used to, but I damn near took off my index finger with one of them.

I'll stick to my trusty straight blade thank you very much. :)
