T&T: Boss Boats

[Tom Little]

We have had a Boss Boat 10 ft Sportsman model as a tender for 18 months. 
Having had all manner of tenders over the last 25 years, the Boss Boat is 
the best yet.
Last year while diving on a reef in the Bahamas in weather we should not 
have been out in, we we got too close to the reef and were sucked into a 
10ft  (20 ft top to trough) breaking wave which broke directly into the 
boat.  Everything not attached was washed overboard.  We accelerated 
immediately on plane with the boat full of water and turned and rode the 
next wave back across the reef.  The boat is seaworthy.
We have the largest recommended engine 40 hp.  We have a Tohatsu 2 stroke 
low emmission direct injection engine.  We easily plane with 4 adults and 
their dive gear.
The boat with engine and full 12 gal gas tank and usual tender equipment 
weighs almost 600 lbs.
