Default Is The Gloyhole reachable?

I have a 25 Pursiut cc with radar and a single 250 outboard and 150 gal fuel. Fished the area on larger boats but would like to take my boat. Weather is obvious. How far could I chase the bluefin. Thanks

Fuel consumption is key. It will do you some good to follow the 1/3 rule. 1/3 for the run out 1/3 for the run in and 1/3 for reserve.

That boat is capable. I would think the most important question is if the captain is capable, and if you have to ask, the answer is NO.

There are many concerns but very doable. Put a good plan together ( weather seas etc...)and attempt to reach out to other boaters in the area. Cell phones are useless out there so a good marine radio and hand held back-up is a minimum. I've done this many times in my single engine boat which I sold last year. Trolling trips to the Rezor wreck, Lillian, Slough, Monster Ledge, plus Barnegat Ridge,Olley 's Lump and many other inshore bluefin "hot spots" of the past are very doable in your boat.
