That's good. A number of years ago the craze was light weight composite hulls and people soon learned that was folly. They rode terrible in a sea and beat the passengers and the hulls up pretty good. I remember watching once a Grady White's hull flexing from just being moved around the yard.

I don't remember how thick the hull was on the Island Hopper but we were once hit by a go-fast offshore and it did nothing to the hull and just bent the railing, didn't even pop the screws out of the deck. A big mallet fixed the railing. His boat was holed and needed a new bow, had to keep it on plane to keep from sinking.

What inlet are you running in and out of?

Dania Beach cut. Right by the coast guard station. My house is a straight shot to the marina.

Coast Guard station on the Cut-Off? Or do you have one of those houses facing the Stranahan River and Lake Mabel where Station Fort Lauderdale is? If you do, my father grew up in one of those houses as a boy in the 1950s.

I don’t live on Ocean access. I’m out West on brackish water without ocean access. I thought you had meant where did i set sail out of.

Yes, that's what I meant then got confused with the CG Station. I remember now, you have that home painted green, Mizner style, right? Nice place.
