Well, we only had one really good bite which cut the line and was probably a big barracuda. Otherwise we just had a beautiful day out on the ocean talking with good friends.
The captain hooking a balloon up to a kite so we can run three lines off of it.
The 80 ft boat has a pair of 2700 horsepower engines. We were cruising at 43 miles an hour.
They said at that speed they use 160 gallons of diesel an hour !! That's over $800

I knew with that wake you were moving. Amazing the design changes that allow boats to achieve those speeds…..along with engine tech. We did a charter out of Clearwater some years ago and I was all curious about power. He was running twin diesels that a company was developing, he was essentially testing them. But not nearly the boat you were on.Well, we only had one really good bite which cut the line and was probably a big barracuda.
