Hatteras weather...

Hatteras Inlet May 1 2010.MP4 - YouTube

Wouldn't want to be on a flexible flyer Ocean, or a new POS Italian Bertram. LOL.

My favorite boat, and one that I want to own one day is still a custom 42ft aluminum sportfish built at great cost in the late 60's. Repowered with a pair of modern Cummins 370's she goes pretty well. Not the fastest, but OMFG in 4-5 foot seas she will plow threw with authority at 20 knots, like a boss.

OTOH my friends 47ft Rybo is like a Corvette in such conditions, but that boat is more of a piece of art than a boat.
