Your dream boat....

[Stinky_Hooker]

OK what boat would you guys buy if you say just came into a little money. I dont mean like a yacht here, just a nice boat...lets say after you paid bills and such you could spend say....50k "ish" for a boat.


I know there are alot of nice boats in that range, but as for me I would still keep it simple. I would HAVE to get me a Parker. I LOVE the cabins and would have a generator and ac installed. The 28'er would be perfect for me to do any kind of fishing I wanted here in the Gulf. They are tough and as low maintenance as a boat that size could be. IMO 8)

Shearline Boat Works Flybridge 37 Little higher than 50K but so is that Parker and Carolina Classic by the way that CC 25 is at Town Creek Marina Beaufort, NC. It looks even better in person. This Shearline used is priced at 95K.

spent a great deal of my youth fishing a 26 fortier. great boat. slower than sh!t but a great boat.
we used to leave the dock at midnight to fish the canyon.

[Skools Out]

Personally i think they are ulgy boats I perfer Southern Flair boats over the Northern Snub nose ones. PS Stinky i'll ask Eric how much he could buy a 28 for at cost. Just curious about the mark up.

This one is $150 g's. I like it real good but I think I'd rather have diesel pusing that big 30 fter.

[racerx]

i would prefer the 44 express but, given the funds stinky has allowed us, though i doubt even his parker meets that criteria, i guess this would do.

Can you imagine the gas? With my whole life savings I doubt I could afford to drive that thing more than an inch!

Please don't take offense, Parish, we all have our own tastes. IMO that thing is hideous! Looks like a floating convention center. Whatever floats your boat (dream)
:D :D

[parishht]

I am looking past the convention center,
it would be replaced with a game room/ media center.

Open transom, easy cleanup after filleting fish.

Just image how fast that thing is, out to the canyons and back in no time.

Easy access swim platform.

Well that's a horse of a different color....don't forget the dance floor and stripper pole!

[Stinky_Hooker]

Id put on a 101lb riptide on the front. 946" shaft of course. 8)

[reelapeelin]

The chick in the white bikini was cool, but I didn't see any rod-holders...wait a minute!!...what am I saying??... ::) ;D ;D ;D ...

[fishbonejr]

i loved that thing it was so cool all that power and speed i would love to buy it but the price i would have to sell my house and the neighbors houses just to buy gas. i guess we should all just stick to our v-20s

[Franco]

I'm gonna have on of these one day:

Franco, that a Ricky? Boat looks familiar.

[Franco]

I'm pretty sure it is, I've been to Rickys shop in Wanchese. I love his boats. In reality I'd like to have on of his 32' Express boats.

Gotta love that Carolina Flair!

[Airslot]

I could be wrong, but I think that's the Janie Mac. Sailed out of Wachapreague VA for a long time. Just sold and moved south, back to NC I believe. Beautiful boat either way.
