Thanks D....... son and I trolled up 4 bass, biggest weighed in at 32.2lbs.
Lots of boats working Raritan Bay...charters, even party boats that tried clamming.
Fished hard and got lucky.

Exchanged waves to another etec powered V boat that also got set up on the troll. These boats look nice out on the water :)

I won't get out there til after Mother's day.

Congrats on the 4 score. Way to go. :clap:

These boats look really nice out on the water because these boats actually look like boats, not the upside down bathtubs that pass for boats now days. There's no school like the old school. :beer:

I have noticed that...... a lot of boats look just like molds with motors.

I can't get fish pic to orient properly. It kept uploading sideways.

They maybe great boats have style but why are they hard to sell? Age maybe (all boats are subject to condition) I still see alot in use. I have a couple to sell without anyone showing interest !.

Not sure if it's the boat, the age, or something else. Might be that there's still a ton of them out there. Don't forget that they were the longest running continuous production run of any "pleasure boat". Literally tens of thousands of them were sold. Could be the economy, the price of gas, who knows... All I know is that I constantly get compliments from people at launch ramps on how nice the boat looks, how they (other people) used to have one and how they miss it, etc.

Well.......here's the pic of me with 32.2lb Striper.......sideways as I noted earlier. This fish only 34-35" long, but very thick.

Step........a few nice pictures of interior / exterior on Craigslist etc and you'd likely get a lot of interest.
