Georgs; I read with interest your inquiry about slip space with an Endeavour Cat. We took possession of our 44 foot Endeavour cat in May 2005 at the factory in Clearwater Florida. We traveled to Tampa and then back to Clearwater and then made the jump across to Carrabelle Florida. The trip was 169 miles. We got moorage in Carrabelle and every place along the intercoastal to Mobile Ala. We then traveled up the Mobile River to the Tenn. Tom, then to the big ditch. The trip took us to Nashville, TN. Nashville, was the only place that we did not have a slip. We were tied off to the show dock. A lot of the places we stayed even provided us with covered slips. So, in essence, I would not have any hesitancy in purchasing this boat with concern about slip space. Along with that, when we left Carrabelle we encountered Seas in the area of 8 to 10 feet. This did not present any trouble for this boat, it just sliced through them life butter. Yes, we are definitely sold on our boat. At 8 knots burning 3 to 4 gallons per hour, and that is for both engines. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to drop me a line. Bob Levine Sandpiper
