Ain't it nice. The Opti makes fuel too down low.. I saw 4 and 5 mpg offshore last in the keys. I have never seen it so calm for the week we were there. Seas 1' or less... I said YES and went trolling out of Marathon. Went 40 miles SE and another 10 N. I was closer to Islamorada when I headed home. Problem was I was in 700 feet and the dolphin were at the 200 to 300 foot line or so I was told. And the reef diving was insane. Vis was 60 feet. Fish would surround you. We were literally brushing into banded rudderfish by the thousands as we were snorkeling.. We saw grouper, eels, barracuda, yellowtail snapper, and about 50 tropicals that I don't know the name of...and the sea turtles were everywhere. Definitely cool.
