The bow cuts a clean line through Narragansett Bay as the 32' Regulator slides past clapboard houses and granite wharves. Salt air and a low engine thrum set the tempo; a third‑generation captain checks electronics, points out the shoals, and talks tides the way a guide talks trail markers. In these waters you’ll trade shoreline views for the quick tug of bluefish and the heavier, measured pull of a trophy striped bass.
