Out in a snotty South Easter in the Pacific North West. Salmon fishing for winter spring salmon. The boat handled the weather well fishing on auto pilot and only down wind.
I wanted to show people how the boat handled in bad weather. There wasn't many video's of these boats in bad weather. Running into the wind the boat is doing about 14 knots, and down wind later in the video we're doing about 21 knots. Wave height was between 5' and 8', I understand that the video will make them look smaller.
We had a couple waves come over the bow of the boat with no major issue. The boat was trimmed properly but the wave length was short. To keep the speed down while trolling we would bump the boat in and out of gear.
While trolling we had a three humpback whales come basically right beside the boat.
