Is she an outboard or an I/O?
Solid boats them. Coast Guard used'em.

Happy boatin'!

 

[salmonkiller01]

Well i was so close to being on the water but after a sea trial I backed out, the boat is water logged(in my personel opinion)!!!! The crappy thing is the guy argued that it wasn't even after sounding the transom with a hammer showing the soft ares and he kept my deposit. Lost some money but saved thousands on repairs.

Bummer. better now than later!

 

[salmonkiller01]

I have been thru structual repairs before a 10,000 dollar boat becomes a 20,000 boat way too quick. I gues the old saying if it seems to good to be true it is.

 

[salmonkiller01]

Bitchin......... Wishing fish Karma your way

 

[salmonkiller01]

the sea trial was more than a boat ride it was a whole day of prawning!!!!!!!

From a 30yr old DE to a Grady, what happened did you win a lottery?

May you catch and thousand fish and laugh a lot!

 

[salmonkiller01]

I wish I won the lottery, just found a boat that I liked(always dreamed of the w/a fishing machine) a little more than money than I wanted to spend but doable and went for it(the wifey agreed)

 

[salmonkiller01]

6 more sleeps till i get her, I am like a kid waiting for christmas!
