"bastard,or "morthodite" as UV calls it,whatever.Definitely not for the purist. We call it Targeted Species,and since splahing at this years UVI, I couldn't be happier with this boat.Cruise at 25 knots.NO problem with weight distribution,as we added 130 gal tank forward of main and have a marlin tower cut down from a 41 ft. sportfisher. Giant cockpit and we regurlarly fish a 6-8 man crew(helps with fuel cost,until I can hang 4 strokes). With extra room,put a huge insulated fishbox below cockpit deck,and added a 50 gal baitwell.Tagged several blues this summer,and ate lots of sashimi. Put curtains on last month,and we hav been filling the box with tuna on the lump this winter.We,ll be pulling for wahoo this week.Great to live in La. where we can fish all year,and to own a boat that can do it.
Faithfully,
Kipp
