Not sure if I told yall or not but while I was in the Keys I put the "Guale Girl" through the biggest seas she's seen yet.......

5-7'ers at about 4secs apart.......It was white knuckle and short lived but I had to prove to myself the boat could do it, and it did. The steep waves only lasted for about 100yrds, part of the reason I did it, but I cant tell you the confidence it gave me afterwards knowin that the V can and will kick azz when it needs to.

On another note, I always wanted to write a short story about what age guys trade in their CC for a cuddy and a dry ride
