    MD Lift In my opinion it pays to go to 10,500 lift. Only a few dollars more because the lift is the same everything with a little more cable.

    HOLY MOLY WOWSA

    I have been looking for a 28, 29 or 30 foot. There are some crazy deals, real deals not low balls.

    Going off shore or near shore

It can be simple low tech but do it every time. 2- Pick your weather window carefully and watch the window. When the weather turns, things can go from good to bad very quickly. It doesn't take long...
