Hey Guys,

We have a patten (19 ft) in Andros, and we are in between dives right now. Seas are 8ft and the boat works great. We can comfortably take 6 for a 1 tank dive or 4 for a two tank dive. It is an Awesome boat. I brought it all the way from Ft. Lauderdale, 170 miles, to Andros. That day the weather was great, but knowing what i know now about the boat I would have taken it over in up to 6 ft. I am real serious I love it. It is Affordable and a easy to trailer, I think every diver or dive club should get 1. PS. I can get out of the water with all my gear on, by myself right through the floor of the boat. It really is a great little boat.

Welcome to scubaboard longliner :)

I have made that crossing many times in larger boats and seen the conditions change quickly. You are a brave man. I would never make that crossing in an inflatable... single engine no less. My hat's off to ya.
