Tremendous.

I never took the Pipe Dream more than about 8 miles offshore to one of our artificial reefs. On that day a typical summer storm popped up and like Blue I had to go into it to get home. That's just another thing I like about fishing in the Keys, if one pops up just go east or west to get around it.

I'm much happier in something more substantial offshore, 28 feet or more.
