We chartered a 55'er several years back out of Charleston...came back in real nasty 7-9' seas...that's a WAVE-BUSTIN' S.O.B. right there... ;) 8)...
Skools...how much $$ for the motors needed for the 1st boat?...

Yeah, Skools...rent it out to yourself...it's more comfortable than doghouse, which is where Mama Skools will send you iffn you park that 55'er out there...but if ya can't live on a boat in the water, it'd still be pretty cool to live in one in the yard!! 8) 8) 8) ;)...

8V92's at 735 hp are strung out pretty tight. We just got a pair of cummins 450's for 40g's. I think you'd be hard pressed to find 735 hp for 20 a piece. The 450's are in this 50'er.http://www.toplessfishingcharters.com/images/ToplessFlatOut150.jpg
