Would you say that it's better than the Navionics app?

The numbers didn't add up.....the previous trip with 462lbs was worth $550,000, yet this trip with 652lbs or whatever is worth...
That is true. BUT, how much weight can it safely carry. That cruise ship is pretty darn heavy when you consider how tall it is. A lot heavier...
Anyone should be able to bend those 1.5" or 2" steel pipes.....I'd stay with steel as I've seen just as many failures in the s/s" mainly around...

Early 2000's 54' Hatteras SF or 60' Hatteras SF. Both have modern power and good boats. A 54' is a great running boat and the 60' is pretty good...
