20' seacraft history

[ScottM]

I use mine to cross Buzzards Bay and get in close to the rocks, very close ask Capt. Chuck, around the Elizabeths

I think we hit a couple of those rocks that night. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Often had my 1988 20' cc over 20 miles looking for dolphin, probably will not go any further with the 21' as most fish are within 7- 14 miles out in the middle keys, made a couple of trips to the marathon hump but not eager to repeat anytime soon

As trayder said it is a pretty much an offshore bay boat. Down here in Tallahassee I have to run 20+ miles to get to the grouper holes and it gets the job done if you dont mind occassionally getting wet. It also gets the job done for fishing some of the deeper flats for reds and trout.

My boat's previous owner used to make an annual run to the Bahamas every year on my 20' Seafari with no problems. Just have a full Coast Guard safety package, at least a handheld VHF, extra water and food and an EPIRB if possible. Keep an eye on the weather and go as far out as you feel comfortable with.

I have a 20 seafari with fairly new power, I take mine out 20-40 miles in the gulf all the time. While down in the keys twice a year every year for the last 6 I have no problem hitting the islamorada humps 12-13 miles offshore. Like any other boat If its nasty out you stay in more This boat has handled the rough better at times then my 25 aquasport while getting twice the economy.

When I owned Elpez's boat I ran her 50 miles offshore out of New Smyrna and OC Md all the time(weather permitting)and other than a wet butt she preformed fine. I also run a 15ft skiff 26 miles to the Marquesas,but 20 miles of it is in a foot of water. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

i run a 21 carolina skiff out of morehead city dolphin fishing about 25 miles out, i used to be 6ft4 but the 2 hour rides out and back shortened that up somewhat. Les
