The first time I talked to Greg Dutka—the owner of Deja Blue, a cool Sunsation Boats 32 Dominator SS sportboat powered by a pair of MerCruiser 496 Mag HO engines—was for a story I did five years ago on Sunsation owners who embraced the boating lifestyle to the fullest. Dutka was the inspiration for my OffshoreOnly.com column that week at the end of October in 2014 because the Texas native, who is a Colonel in the United States Army, was stationed on the Hawaiian island of Oahu and took advantage of running his 2006 Sunsation around the islands.
