Took some guys to CAT reef to catch Black Sea Bass last Sunday and the boat was amazing. Loaded with 5 grown men, coolers and full fuel we only burned 15 gallons. Round trip was approx 35 miles so wouldn't that mean we got about 2.3-2.5 mph? Loaded down and all I would be very happy with that! Gonna take my wife, who is great with child, out to St. Catherines this weekend to catch whiting. The last time we got to fish together was this time two years ago when she was also great with cild.......We caught 77 BULL whiting off my home waters of St. Simons in a 81 Bonita that I rebuilt. It had a 60 hp evenrude "selectric" POS! The throttle cable broke and I had to hold it open to run while preggers steared the boat home!
