I was out in Boatfreak28's 28 AT and all I can say is wow. That boat is a kick a$$ true 28' offshore boat. I have owned 2 28' V's and the AT shames both boats in the rough what. The fit and finish is excellent and the free board is second to none when in the drives seat the sides of the hull come up to the middle of my chest. Talk about a secure feeling. The boat is layed out excellent. The only down fall is you need to decent HP to make the boat run fairly fast. Here is a pic of the boat on Lake Michigan. Mike I hope you don't mind me posting it.

I was told you need a blue motor to make a 28 go. But Blue = more insurance $$ Thats why I didn't buy 1 when I was lookin at 28 singles

I left friday at 8:30am needed to get back to the office. I fowarded my office calls to my cell and used a headset to work on the 3 hour tow home.
I wish I had a slip up there or lift.
