When I was a kid I used to go fish on some clunky, smelly old diesel trawlers for red grouper, shrimp, salmon, halibut, crabs, etc.. Loved everything about it: diesel fumes, that full-displacement hull hunkering down in the sea, watching stuff go by slowly. When it was time for a new boat a few years ago I got a little pocket trawler, 8 knot cruising speed= Slow Boat.
I have a lot of kids(5) by today's standards anyway, and when they were young, it seem like anytime we had to do anything it seemed like it took us ALLDAYLONG!!!
