Default Re: Islamorada ClassicSeaCraft Happy Hour

Its funny how little love cats get until you go on one. True you dont have that "Romantic" sailing feel of heeled over and water rushing by, but when I look at the GPS and were moving along at 7knts in 15knts of wind, and most mono's are doing 4-5 and their drinks are slipping off the tables, etc, and ours are nice and steady even the nasty stuff, whats not too love? Plus with almost a 15' beam, it gives our trolling rods really good placement apart , and we love to fish while sailing.
We dont have to reef until over 20kts of wind, and can go up on almost any beach w/ out worry. Our old Mono even w a shoal draft we carved our initials into the bottom everywhere.

Everyone should sail an old Hobie just once, or repeatedly.

Some of my old puffer friends used to think I was nuts when I came by loaded to fish the day. This is a sailboat.

Blah blah blah.

33# African Pompano fed 18 puffers. Janie bought a 4/0 after she got spooled by a sail. A sail spooled a sailor. Pun intended and please accept my apology.

I think it may be the stealth, but puffers land fish.

Cheers,
Us
