    New(er) Freedom 205 vs Adventure 208

    Another vote for a 228! Love being able to get out of the wind. But like seasick said I recommend wearing a PFD when trying to get to the bow and I have a hardtop.

    Bodega Bay/Point Reyes

    Fabulous I'm so happy with this boat! Although I'm still trying get the oil adjusted correctly with the 2 stroke oil. Since Monday I made 3 fishing trips for a total of 145 miles I used 3 gallons of oil. That's about one gallon every 48 miles. Seems like too much to me?
