Reworked bait tank, wash down, winch etc.etc. Hopefully time well spent. Cruises at 30 knots @ 2 miles per gallon. Range approximately 350 miles.

And finally shot of her splashed at Ukee this June, which after a few minutes / info of Nog's time (from his new girl) & a large bottle of amber provided the info necessary to bonk some fish and keep me boys happy. Another successful father son trip.
 
Very nice ride!

Do you mean 2 years of working on her?

Which model is she (length, beam, etc.)?

Great pic's. Thanks for sharing.
 
I'm the second owner 2550 CC Cuddy. Was ordered by a gal in Secret cove in 1991, who attended the Pursuit factory. Had some changes made to the stock boat, no side deck teak but fibreglass / leaning post. Beam 8'6". Cuddy has vee birth which is a great area to store the gear but not for sleeping. With head between births. Two winters/ springs of work. When I bought her she had no electronics, fishing gear, T Top etc. was used a a day boat from Secret Cove to Buchaneer Bay & put away in her shed. Had a pair of two strokers that produced some great top end but plenty of smoke & fuel burn.
 
Holmes, must thank you. Couple years ago I was looking for some info on the Ukee area. Up popped Nog, your recommendation of a Large bottle of appy has paid dividends since. Off August 12 & 13th to try out that new fish slayer of his, IT WILL DEFINITELY BE A HOOT!!! The man has a sick sense when it comes to fish.
 
Nice boats boys! Here is a shot of my rig from this summer. If you fish Renfrew at all you may have seen me out there. :cool:

That thing kicks butt. I might have to drive down there just to check it out. I have always liked the East coast style boats but that one is kick butt due to the West coast style cabin! Anyone know the dimensions of her?
 
Yes! it is a wonderful ride too & Sorry :o Dan... that was only 15 knots... full bore is 20 knots. It was sure nice to get out last weekend. I have some nice improvements lined up for the winter months.... hyd anchor winch & hyd hauler too!:D
The name of the boat is 'LITTLE BARON' it is registered and details can be found here;
