im sorry if this has been discussed before
I have owned my 1980 Oday 30 for almost 20 years. She is a sound Boat with very recent refit on most everything. I live in the Chattanooga Tn are and have only operated it in the lake and Tn river. I am considering taking a trip. My question is has anyone made a trip from Florida to the Bahamas on this type of boat. Aside from adding things like more water and simple things like that what do I need to. Is she even capable of making such a trip safely. I have read things labeling it as a coastal cruiser but I’m not exactly sure what that means. I’m not looking to do a crossing or anything close to that but am very interested in doing some Island hoping.
What’s you guys thoughts.
