Let's see your boat!

[sly_karma]

Love seeing all the runabout hulls in this thread! For a while I was looking to move up to a cuddy style for the higher freeboard and storage, but I've come to appreciate the lighter weight and smaller wind profile. Plus a cuddy wouldn't fit in my carport.

Ok, I did what Sharphooks said looks like it worked for one photo but not the other - Admin can you please flip upright. Photos taken this summer - included a photo of the dog on otter watch while out in the gulf islands at anchor in a quite bay for a few days.

Wow, it hurts when you sell these things and then look back and think of all the memories you sold with it as it got pulled off into the sunset hooked to someone else’s truck...

Yes the cottages were awesome as well as the fishing , first time that I hooked a halibut trolling around the corner from Cape Sutil towards Cape Scott, God’s country

here is my tub
I did 9 seasons on the PW and one on BS. I was a couple million short of being an owner, but pretty glad to get out when I did. Last trip was summer of '94.

Were you on the Warwind the summer he towed the Dalewood Provider in to Esquimault upside-down. I was running the Harbour Provider at the time. I think it was 89 or 90, the year before I bought the Venturous

No. He loved trying new things. Tendering in Bristol Bay, Research Charters for Oreg. St. U, towing boats upside down. I was in San Juan when a different aluminum rolled over. I was summers of 79 -85, '88 on BS, then 93+94. I think 87 and 88 were the years he went to try and find tuna in Tahiti (well, 10 days from Tahiti). The ocean is big. Spare fuel in a fish hold, water on the bottom part.

For those that have been on here for years, one of the longest running threads on here was "forum members boats", I think it got lost in the last site update tho. Heres my 2470.
