Photos are all we've got and my first impressions were that wasn't a boat I'd want to be on in that area under the conditions often there. When we hear 32' it doesn't tell us much. A 32' tug is one thing and a jon boat at the other end. Well, this looks much closer to the jon boat than the tug. Looks like a fun boat in good conditions but not in any other conditions. Frankly it reminds me too much of a boat my cousin's husband and his father built and then they and my father and another cousin and his father took it out. Approached the inlet and over it went with them landing on or near a sand bar.
