Re: Is That Dug Stowe or did some kid borrow his boat

The black topped bahia mar is Harvs boat. The other bahia mar is Dick Deans boat. The first montauk rendezvous was 2003. Brewster's tattoo was the 2nd montauk rendezvous several years later.

Re: Is That Dug Stowe or did some kid borrow his boat

I was on the boat for that as well. I was happy to see the boat back in shinnecock this summer. It belongs there. I also remember Dug saving me from the first Montauk rendezvous at the yacht club. Thanks again Dug.

Re: Wishing for warmer days

I have been fortunate enough to be fishing on some big and fast sportsfishing boats lately and the station wagon effect makes the cockpits pretty misty at cruising speeds. We are cruising 30 knots plus and the boats are 60 ft. It must be an engineering nightmare trying to prevent that negative press...

Re: cummins 370

I would think you could cruise close to 30 knots but you would need trolling valves to make the boat manageable around the dock. My Dad has 300 hp cummins without trolling valves and it is a handful around the marina. He can cruise 26 knots.

The boat has oversized rudders. And it is well rigged to troll for tuna. The previous owner was a very accomplished canyon fisherman. The first fish this boat killed was 600lb plus mako winning the Oakland shark tournament.

We have caught our fair share of trophy sized striped bass dragging wire. I am the one with the canyon tuna fishing disease but Dad likes nothing more than dragging spoons along the beach. He is really good at it. I think he is just humoring me when we run the 31 to the canyon.
