Dearest panel of 'ardboaters,
I am shortly departing the shores of dear old blighty for the blue waters of Atlantic Canada. An' I'm not coming back neiver.
All being well next year I might be looking for a towable (which in the land of monster 4x4 trucks gives me quite some leeway) offshore capable powerboat. Natch my first choice would be a RIB of course but in Canada they're as rare as rocking horse droppings so probably it'll 'ave to be an 'ardboat.
I quite like them Boston Whaler thingies being roughty toughty and unsinkable. Anyone every owned one/been in one/once seen one/knows a bloke who once saw one? Are they any good? Any other alternatives worth considering (info from our transatlantic cousins gratefully received?)
We're talking wilderness cruising here so probably twins and good seakeeping are a must.
Ta muchly,
