Gotta love the "SeaCraft Confidence!"

Newburyport is reputed to be the 3rd most treacherous inlet on the east coast. I can't tell you how many experienced and knowledgable skippers have made admiring comments with regrad to my scepter's ability to handle some of the Newburyport Nasties. (East flowing 3-4 kt. Merrimac River plus outgoing tide current smacking into a very narrow inlet All moving against a 15- 20 knot east wind and sea - can you say interesting fun!

Yes, there are plenty of days you say, "Maybe tomorrow- I rather be around to make that choice.)
