The only stinkpot I'd care to own!

If I have to listen to a motor all the time, I'd just as soon listen to these babies. They are the boats we deployed with in '04-'05. Brand new (at the time), Navy Coastal Warfare. They are fast and can turn on a dime.

Staying in the same size range as that war-wagon, I'd select something a bit more civilized . . . like a Hinckley Talaria:

I think Bardo's post was in fact serious. Mine on the other hand, was posted in jest.

I've often thought a Dyer 29 would be a perfect powerboat for the Chesapeake:



And no, I'm not kidding....so shoot me.

This is as close as I'll get to owning a Hinckley pwerboat:



My Hinckley preference though, is a Bermuda 40. I'd have to settle for a model . . .
