Well I sold my boat a little over a week ago. I secured a new boat (to me at least) and went to South Carolina yesterday with Brett and we picked her up.
A big shout out to my buddy Bill Carson for turning me on to this boat, Thanks Bill, and to Brett as well for taking a day out and going with me.

Brett and I braved the cold winds, to take her out for the maiden voyage, for a few hours today, to give her the test run. We had been fishing for about less than 2 hours and got the stinky out of the new ride, with two fish in the heavy winds. So it looks a though I am going to have to keep the boat now...LOL

So far I am very happy with the new ride and look forward to many more trips in her. Here are a few pics of the new lucky boat!!!













By the way she swims on for someone else to have fun with her one day.

Wow! Dan, I am very impressed with the boat and fish. My daughter played golf today in the 36 degree temperature. I was freezing, and I know those fish helped get the body heat flowing. I can't wait to see her. Do you still park her at your old location? I'll have to get by and take a look, but that depends if we can take a day away from golf.

Sexy. Those things are beautiful. Do you have any other plans, mod-wise, for her?

Oh one more thing. What did you name it? Funky Dunky?

Nice job and awesome ride. Maybe one day you will have a open seat for me and show me how to get those big fish.
