Esthetically yes...the ladder looks amazing, a work of art, but functionally I agree it looks to be somewhat obtrusive when backing down, but then again, what do I know? Seriously, all the boats are amazing machines!!

I agree with ya as well on the ladder, but.

If you look at pic #5 in descending order of the Anne Warwick, there is a huge distance from the helm station to the edge of the rear of the flybridge floor, ladder or no ladder I don't think from the flybridge helm station you can even see the chair..least that's the way it appears. Could be the angle of the shot tho..hard to tell.

I'll go out on a whim and say that Phat Mann is one of my all time favorite sportfishermans. I even had a bonus two weekends ago while down in OC. Wife took the little one to the merry go round and I went out to the inlet to watch the boats come in. To my surprise...In comes Phat Mann. Made my weekend.

54' to 56', the most well balanced boats in any size class and any manufactuer, custom or production.

I don't say you are wrong on this one, but I would like to read why you think this compared to 57 - 60' custom jig or plank boats?

Don't forget that the Phat Mann is for sale also. She is one hell of a boat, and is one of the finest well priced custom boats on the market. The Phat Mann has a tournament record to back it up also.
Mark and Amy, along with Capt. Dave Warren have done very well over the last few years and I'm sure they will be sorry to see it go.
