Why?

With all that salt water coming over the transom he needs to be able to
wash it down.

Now, now.

Harry is *very* sensitive about the low transom on his new boat. His
old one was much more seaworthy.

Be sure to let us know when you run Matanzas and Nassau Sound Inlets in
NE Florida in that high-transomed barge of yours. That'll tell us all
about the seaworthiness of floating RVs. You can head in to the ICW at
Nassau Sound and then out into the Atlantic again at Mantanzas.

Take photos after you change your brown-stained shorts.

Oh. I've run both inlets dozens of times. In very, very small boats.

Go for it.


Here's an aerial of Nassau Sound, looking north:

You want to enter so you head under the smaller bridge at the left of
the photo. Once you are under that bridge, you turn left and then right
and to your right, along the quarter mile of shoreline that leads right
to the ICW are some terrific oyster beds that hold lots of redfish and
flounder.

Harry,
You da man! There probably is no one in rec.boats with your skill and
expertise. NO one else whould have ever attempted to run those inlets
in your little 17' bay boat. You must feel very sad to have to contend
with now fishing in a bay with no inlets that allow you to take
advantage of your years of experience. I guess that is why you now
average less than an hour a week using your boat.

That's right, S.F.B. I've got about 25 hours on my new boat in the few
weeks I've owned her, am still using her, and your imaginary boat is put
away for the season, you claim.

Right.

Harry,
It seems that you are really concerned if I have a boat or don't have a
boat, why don't you stop all the worrying and just take me up on my
offer to prove if I own a boat or not. It is a real simple way for you
to make $20,000 for either some really nice boating accessories or to
give to your favorite charity. As I said, I will donate half to the
Salvation Army, and will actually allow you to make the check out to the
Salvation Army so you can take the tax write off. Nothing could be
better than taking $20,000 from a real S.F.B. (whatever that is).

Hey, did I tell you my dad got his engineering degree from Yale?

Why would I want to do that when I already have 3 safe, deep water
inlets in NE Florida? Real men and real boats run offshore past most
of NE Florida.

Small boats with limited range, low transoms, inexperienced operators
and dubious sea keeping ability run for cover where ever they can find
it. Florida east coast USCG recommends 24 ft as the minimum for
offshore fishing based on their capsize statistics. That jibes with
my experience.

Where the heck are you? Are you still in the Carolinas or are you back
in the land stolen from the Pequot?
