    Okay let's just stop. There are things to kill, June 1st is a ways off, and now I'm thinking of projects that need to hold off for a couple of months.

    Me too. That's why I'm heading South after Christmas. Nothing like catching dolphin and sailfish in a bay boat.

    I was just asked to jump over from Florida to the islands with two boats at lunch today. They're leaving in March for a week.... Damn it would be nice to actually not have to say no.

    That would be nice. We run over for the day, catch yellow eye snapped off West End and run back. Bahamian Gov is starting to crackdown though. We run a 31 Contender over but this here is my boat in Stuart:

    Spoke to Linwood Parker at the Annapolis boat show in Oct. He confirmed they'll do the green hull and tan interior gel coat again on request and they'll add a bracket to a 21 SE.

    Seems to me that High Tide has a heap of wood in it. Good survey goes a long way when buying a used boat.

    I think I will just keep what I got since 1988. Would post a pic but don't just get it.
    NOTCHED TRANSOM and been in 6-8' sea's right regular in her day. It's all about the design.

    Boonie, later years, they were made with the coosa.

    Noted on the word from the man on top, his word carries more weight than the gal manning the phones I reckon.

    Justin

    Look at Judge Yachts in MD. Bill Judge is good people and builds a great composite boat. We're ordering a new boat next fall.

    i wish it was a 225 mine is a zx2000 only made for a few years tall sides 20 ft now only thing you can get with tall sides is a 24ft is what i heard in the skeeter line im not sure tho. the guy i bought it from added rod boxes into the sides keeps them out of the way. she will run 60mph but thats way too fast 35-45 is a real good ride prop matches the speed to the rpms i love it.

    and thanks
