Lots a very good advice and its encouraging there seem to be plenty of owners here in Florida.

I am in the exploratory phase and simply putting together lists of what I need to learn and figure out. Forty years ago, I'd have bought the boat and headed for the tackle shop by now...ignoring a few details along the way. Small items like, understanding how an engine operates to be able to "fix" something that might malfunction out on the water, basic navigation and boat handling...

Been there done that.

Trying to measure twice this time around and cut only once.
