Hippies don't hang out on multimillion dollar boats or get flown (netjets) to Maine to bring boats to RI.

little fast to troll from.

but in light air you got good toona trolling speeds.

and those cables (PBO/Carbon/Kevlar) keep that 140 some odd foot rig from falling into the ocean
kinda important.

Hey Likwid, if that boat is so nice how come there are no seats for all those people hanging off the side? It looks like a refugee flotilla vessell from Cuba?
