I have had a few people ask what I like most about the new boat and I must say that visibility is near the top of the list.

Great vis.
I like the bow chocks, who makes them and do they make them to fit 3/4inch lines?

Awesome, I searched the Hamilton site and could not find those. Thanks for posting that Plowin, good to have another option.

My Duffy cruiser would show a bowsprit blocking the horizon. Since I anchor 90% of the time, I can't do without the convenience of a readily deployable anchor/windlass, but I've often dreamed of a pipe-based setup that would project horizontal to the waterline rather than the upward angle of the bow.

Wicked good stuff

Since there is still over a foot of snow on the ground I think you were trying to cheer us all up with the video of running towards the sun in some warmer weather.
Thanks, it helped make my day a little brighter.
I think there are a lot of reasons to like the new boat.

I'm short, 5'4, so running angle is a pretty big deal to me, HA i can barely see over the dash as it is! My buddies 35 young bros rides WAY bow high, when shes steaming I cant see anything to the port side of the bow. That was a big selling point for the new boat, when she got going it was almost flat, visibility was awesome. Hopefully ill get some pictures of it running this summer. Heres a picture of the young bros.
