Author	Topic:   13' Sports making a Trip from Fort Lauderdale to Venezuela
2001 13 Sport Owner	posted 07-09-2001 12:16 PM ET (US)         Check out the Honda Marine Home Page. There are 2 Boston Whaler 13 Sports headed to Venezuela. So far they have made it to Great Exuma. The total trip is 1700 miles. Both boats are powered by 40HP Hondas.

I feel reasured about putting Doel Fins on now that I looked this up and noticed that the Hondas used for this adventure have Doel Fins on them. It is a nice combination Whaler, Honda, and Doel Fins. I am Happy to have it also. Thanks, made my day! Bear
