- NONE!! Dreaming of a 44 Calvin Beal
I'm starting some research (and looking for some investors
) into buying my first commercial boat. Hopefully this stays on topic.
I will be using the boat out of southern RI and fishing exclusively tuna, primarily in the canyons (80-120nm one way). Obviously a downeast style boat seems a no brainer here. Any brands or models stand out in terms of durability and construction? Any designs to flat-out avoid?
For the Pro's out there, what would you change about your boat if building it from scratch? What quality is more important, ride or efficiency (subjective)? Any recommendations as far as liveability when working it everyday?
