As a very new member here, I will say yes this boat can go offshore fishing, but so can a canoe !!!!!

Be smart, buddy boat when possible, have all necessary gear, PICK YOUR DAYS, watch the weather.

All Captain's experience levels and boat handling abilities are different. Know your limits and don't push the envelope. Live to fish another day.

I have run 30-35+ miles out of and back in Sebastian inlet in Florida, which can get as ugly as any inlet in this state, this is a great boat hull, but certainly not invincible.
