nice boat man. You are going to have some fun times in that thing.





I'd rather be fishing, thinking about God, than sitting in church, thinking about fishing

Wow, that's one serious fishing machine! I'm a little bit envious. I have boats now, but when I retire in a couple of years I'm going to get something like that one. It looks real nice, already all set up and ready to go. You dog!



Many a problem will solve itself if you'll forget it and go fishing.

Congratulations on a really nice fishing boat. I've been looking and dreaming for a little while. Looks like you found a gem in great condition. Hope you have some good times in it.

Tight lines.

Very nice boat Dan, when we going fishing? Maybe we should talk about doing a Salsa Boyz. Have you had it out yet?

Hi Curt, no I haven't had it out yet but I'm hoping to get it out this week for sure. I need to get my FF installed and a few things like that during the week. My wife is having surgery on Tuesday so I am going to take the rest of the week off to finish it up. We should talk about the Salsa Boys maybe one day over a cup of coffee.

Very nice! I'm green as Kermit!

Um, er, I take it that's not a "project boat".
Way cool - if ya ever need a passenger to hold yer net, or cover some gas - you know how to find me! Cool

Very nice, I have an 18.5 glass version of it a year older. You'll enjoy it.

Hi submoa, I haven't had it in the water yet. I am re-arranging a few things and adding a few of my toys to make it more functional. There were some things in odd places. Hope to have it out this weekend.

Hi Curt, yes I did find this on KSL. I was waiting for a while for this one to appear.

What all did it come with Dan? I can see you have a bow mount electric and it looks like four seats, did it come with a kicker? Jason said it had a finder. Is it a four stroke main motor or oil injected two stroke. I need to start keeping my eye on KSL maybe I can get a deal too.

Nice, thanks for the details. Sounds like a lot of the same stuff I'll be looking for as well. How many months were you looking before you found it?

Haven't really been hard, but I have looked at a lot. About a year or so. Just got tired of fixing the money pit. I'll be lucky to get 1/4 of the money back that I have in it.
