re: is there a more formidable offshore fishing machine than the Freeman 34 ?

I will say I've done a lot of fishing off a 31 Cape Horn. It's a solid boat @conundrum.

Also been in 32 contender chirping 300s going 20mph. That was a sloppy day, but hey we swept CHS rodeo

In a freeman you could cruise 60mph in 4ft seas and not even spill your beer.
