She's a 20 foot Wilson, beam 7'5"; fitted with a Bombardier (Evinrude) High Output (HO) DI V-6..... for a bit of whizzzzzz factor ;D [/quote] bombardier. [she aint arf hot man]wot knotage she pull nick ? me ol punk ah waller ;D ;D[/quote] Agh, now that depends on how clean her bottom is; that sounds aweful I know ;D With a fresh anti-fouled hull then I can get 35 mph, but because of the hull she starts to lift and needs careful trimming...so may go faster but it gets spicy Trouble is that being a Cathedral Hull it needs to flat to do those speeds !!!!

you can get quite far out then, i was just wondering because i am doing up my 16 foot day fisher and wondered how far i would be able to take it out. how much do you pay to keep your boat at haslar lake if you dont mind me asking because i am hoping to moor my boat once it's finished hopefully by summer next year

I think there are spaces available. PM me if you want the number of the guy that runs it. As for distance out from shore...that's a matter of judgement on fuel burn, sea conditions and your confidence in the boat. I have driven my boat right around the IOW in one trip... but have never been further out than 10 miles from land. I guess I could go 50 miles+ but I would need to know what the forecast was going to do. Some guys go out deep in small fleets... that seems a very sensible and safer thing to do
