Those "little rubber boats" are quite menacing looking when loaded w/ navy seals. I see them all the time on my daily rides. Heading out to sea thru the local inlet they are quite a sight. Huge storms, no problem. They just hold on tighter! The bigger "cigarette" type boats are pretty wild. They hit the waves full power, big air, both props out, hauling a$$. It looks like such a rush.
