Very nice boat, if you want to see mine you're welcome to take a look. About 20 minute drive from Orient Point/New London ferry. Works well for me and my "captain", Trapper. Planes quick and runs at about 18 knts with an 8 hp with us aboard, been out in 2'er's, stable and safe for it's size. Nice compromise between a classic 12' BBSB and the larger boats.
