      Maybe even three Seamen. I guess that would make it air tight.

        I don't think it's a tandem. With the center location of the seat, it looks like a well balanced single model. When you get a big one on your rod, you'll be able to handle a lot of pullage from a stable platform.

          I think we all agree that this vessel is seaworthy, but given that she has sunk several other ships in the past week, not so sure that I would make the upgrade. In case my kayak is watching this thread, let me just say that I love my Kayak.

            That vessel is probably more high maintenance that a 32' Sea Ray, but more fun to drive. At least for the first couple trips and then you start desiring other vessels.

              That looked more like a 36 Sea Ray ....... model C

                I like the D model better. It's something more "full" about it.

                  According to some boaters, the D model is a bit bouncy, even when the hull is banging the waves at moderate speed.

                      If we are talking death then "a little rough and being banged to death" aint a bad way to go.

                        definitely a sit in with a lot of hull slap but the outriggers make it a stable platform to sight cast from.
