The hull cuts a clean line through Biscayne Bay as the city skyline slides aft — sunlight fingering the water, the engine's low thrum keeping time. On a clear morning the 40' Sea Hunter carries a small group out from Miami Beach to shallow sandbars and islands, where crystal-blue shallows invite swimming and snorkelers peer at patches of seagrass and small reef fish.
