Technically, it's a 79ft vessel for the reasons that you mention. I've run in to very few regulatory issues resulting our size. Our role in US VTS is different than smaller boats, but being a recreational vessel under 30 meters gets us out of any Canadian VTS issues. I'm sure we'll run into other special rules in other countries. > -----Original Message----- > Is the boat really over 79 feet?
