The new vessels will be quieter, smoother..... able to cruise faster than the old boats and navigate shallower water.....

new roughly 65-foot vessels will be modern floating laboratories better suited for studying Great Lakes fisheries.

Can I have the keys to test drive it?

I promise I won't go too fast and I promise to take some fresh samples during the Fall Derby combat trolling season.
