In the heat of summer,
go fishing during the day, and race at night. 
spent much time here?? 
Unlike you all summer is my winter, ie, downtime. Time with family and friends then back to racing fall, winter, spring.
trust me I know all the cliches regarding boat ownership have owned a dozen or so. Sold my last one in 05 and have been wanting one like this!

do you fish off shore much
Yes, with a boat all your fishing is offshore!!lol
Seriously most anywhere in Florida World Class sport fishing is minutes away. I am 20 mins from the Gulf and can be at Boca Grande in less the 1 hour.
Boat has 175hp, it is a 20ft Mako center console. It is really the perfect size for what I want to do. And under $5k with nice tandem axle trailer just couldn't resist!

Just beware of giant sharks 
yep, rumour has it there is a 17'+ hammerhead not far from here named "Hitler"
They caught a 14' scaled in at 1100# 2 years ago
We fish for sharks but mostly at night. Tarpon are in right now, Snook are heating up, Mackeral in droves. Grouper, Snapper and Redfish most of the summer
here's a little bonnethead my daughter caught on a "barbie pole" !

I have to agree somewhat.. sitting in the car with a firejacket in 100° heat isn't the funnest thing I've done.

Love fishing for black tips at night...hook up on a 5-6 footer with light tackle and it doesn't get much better, plus they eat good chunked up and marinated on the grill.... As for Boca Grande, good luck with that, better bring plenty of rigs....that tiny pass gets busy....ask me how I know 
You ever want to trailer it down to the ten thousand islands give me a shout, I know some great spots down there...

Bunch of us are planning an overnighter on Caya Costa in the next few weeks. 
That sounds like a real good time....I used to take the kids camping on the islands down south....we had a blast, but not this time of year, you'd get eat'n alive....
