From the pics he provided, it is a geared engine, GO-480's (unmistakable from the cowling). I think it's a AC-560?
it's the field approved 3 Blade prop's that make you think that.

Ok, so I'm confused.
What model commander is it? What engines does it have?
Are you flying this single pilot?
Did the weather cause you to scrub your trip last night?

Now now folks...leave my hero alone. I figure I'll be able to kick alcoholism by drinking to NWpilot's adventures. Soon enough he'll be out of adventures because he turned himself into a floating cork in the ocean cleverly disguised as shark bait.
Honestly, NW...what the heck are you thinking? Do you really think that everyone who says you're stupid is just messing with you? You're in so far over your head you don't even see the top of the well you fell into. You're going to kill yourself flying these ********************box airplanes all over the place with no experience in them and arguable experience to be doing them in any airplane in the first place. Who's going to provide for your family when you finally find yourself in the ocean and give in to hypothermia surrounded by sharks having your skin burned by the fuel in the water? Does being a self employed ferry pilot have good life insurance benefits so they have something other than an empty casket to bury? Get your head out of your ass, start thinking about your innocent family and stop making these dumb decisions.
I'd let you in the pool for release date of your NTSB factual report but you won't be around to collect your winnings.
So how is he supposed to get experience....by not flying?
Sounded like to me, he knows what he is doing.
And yes, I have flown many Atlantic and Pacific crossings in small aircraft.
