It is a nice boat, one of the nicest down there.
i'm looking onto some options now. My sister runs a bar here in the city and
they did a booze cruise last night that was 35.00 per head from 7-11pm. Now
they had the whole boat (much too large for us at 2/300 heads) but she said
we may be able to share a cruise with another party. Either way she is going
to call me with her research and contacts in about an hour or 2.
Stay tuned....

Yes
And we should go fishing together sometime soon.
We've looked at Cruise ships out of Manhattan and the pricing was
incredable.
But the Dorothy IV is, as you know,a large boat, and it is cleaned
daily. And the upper deck is not used for Fishing at all. After being
cleaned, without being loaded with Bait, it doesn't seem that much
different. It's also fast. However, if we just go on as passangers, all
bets are off.
My daughter loved to hangout upstairs and get the wind in her hair, and
catch some rays. But your right. It's primarily a fishing boat, and I'm
not so much as bent on the Dorothy IV or even Sheepshead Bay if we find
something doable in another venue. I just wanted to post what might be
available.
