PMY has had a different company boat every year since 1988—most christened Office Ours—and every year they get a little bigger and a little more luxurious. In 2005 we added a twist. Instead of having the boat delivered to us, we went to her—St. Augustine, Florida, where our Luhrs 41 was built. Taking that Office Ours to New York was not only a great cruising
At some point every skipper dreams of making a long offshore passage—maybe across an ocean, to paradisiacal tropical islands, or to the Arctic. But when dreams close in on reality, mundane issues creep in: What’s the most seaworthy hull? What if the engine breaks down? Will I get seasick? Enough, already: Worrying too much will drive you right into the arms of the nearest golf pro.
Running a sporty planing boat at dead slow ahead for 23 hours nonstop?! I know it sounds plumb crazy, but I’m hoping that once you understand my strategies and the results, you’ll conclude, “Yeah, crazy like a fox!”Jamie BloomquistA slow cruise from Maine to Connecticut provides a chance to test some

Part of my high-school summers was spent working in a children’s clothing store in my hometown near the south shore of Long Island, New York. I’d sit under the florescent lights in the overly air-conditioned shop, looking through the window at the clear-blue summer sky and wondering why I hadn’t been as proactive as my friends who were working at the various beach clubs and marinas in the area.
