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.
