It's been a while. Nobody else would take their vessel out in weather like this, report on it, and still enjoy it. Thanks 🤝🤝

Thank you for taking us along on your adventure. From landlocked Minnesota we get off the lake with waves of 2-3' in our 22' Alumicraft

dashew the boat of my dreams ,they are incredible performers great video demonstration of these amazing boats

My favourite weather and with THAT wonderful design ! Love it.

Favourite vids, not enough of them

Thanks! Will do!

Impressive performance in those conditions.

Making great progress in those conditions

Very impressive!

Nice boat, good validation for the fine entry bow.

56db inside - while powering into a gale - that's the level of refrigerator or normal conversation. Outstanding.

Like your ride 👍

Thanks for coming

Thanks for sharing that, and the commentary for context, etc. It would've been great to hear some of the audio from the hull going through the seas though. That said, this is why I'm hoping to get an FPB in the future. What are your, or anyone else's, thoughts on using a Seakeeper stabilization system? My concerns are kelp, crab pots, lobster pots, etc.

great video and performance of the boat is pretty incredible. To only lose 2 knots in such challenging conditions is a real credit to the design. What speed would you reduce a 64 to in same conditions (1,000 turns would achieve ?) And is she leaning slightly to port, if so why is that ? Thanks for a great video. Enjoyed that from my comfy sofa :-)

The fuel system did well to keep supplying the engine with usable fuel (not full of air bubbles etc..). Great designed performance, build quality and systems.

New here, would like to see boat action turning and running with the seas.

Interesting video, thanks for sharing. How did you calculate the wave heights? At one point you mentioned 6m + waves and them blocking your sight lines. Unfortunately the camera doesn’t pick this up.

So basically FPB has the hull of a Beowulf (Dashew's sailing yacht) but optimized for motoring.

First, let me say, I don't think there is a better cruiser for its size. I've spent years offshore in the Gulf of Mexico as a radio navigator on a research vessel. The GoM is often rough like these seas in the video. Those seas are tolerable but tiring and tedious but it just makes you all the happier when you reach port. If ony I were 20 years younger and a thousand times richer. Sigh.

Bravo, Stan and Steve. Why did you choose not to run from the great room?

Because for unrelated reasons, we had lost function on 2 of our 3 helm displays, so the navigating was easier on the matrix deck. In general, the great room is our choice.

Nzers OMG 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

It's the East see, not the see of Japan

I guess if I understood what was happening it would be a more informative video

I think she is very impressive but in my years as a captain running in the North Atlantic, there is no way those seas are 6 meters. Making claims like that turns off viewers like myself who actually know the truth.

I've been in worse weather on my dingy. What's the point? Zero forward breaking waves. Until you hit that point there's little danger to any boat.
