[QUOTE="Jenn D, post: 927013, member: 57678"] Well, we finished setting up the new boat and breaking in the motor, and today was our first offshore fishing trip. Seas were only 1-2 ft, and the boat was fantastic. We got it up to 40 knots (freaking awesome) traveling to and from the port. Once we reached our destination (one we used to fish years ago when we were on an offshore fishing team), we had a fish on within 2 minutes of our first lines hitting the water. Our first fish was about a 12 lb kingfish. After that the bite was one. We were in the kings all morning. Overall, we boated 4 kings, had about 5-6 other knockdowns, but baits got slashed with no hook set. At the end of the morning we played around with some bottom fish and caught a few seabass, and an octopus. All-in-all, a fantastic day for only 5 hours of fishing. We are incredibly pleased with the boat - very comfortable and very efficient (only used about 18 gallons of gas total all day). Here's a few of the kings we caught.
