One of the guys I fish with got this video on a tuna trip last Thursday in the Gulf of Maine (about 7 miles from Platts Bank) and I thought you all might enjoy it. Isla handled it no problem with the autopilot on cruising at 16 knots quartering on the bow. A nearby buoy had 4.9' - 5.2' seas at 6 seconds during this time period. Some chatter over the radio described the conditions as "wicked nautical". The seas settled down overnight as we were at anchor.
