Hope you don't mind me doing this MJ....

I decided to go get MJ's post from Hammer's "Should I..." post just to get it all in one place. *Here it is straight from the big guy himself, and I quote:

No problem, I would have done the same thing anyway!

Hey...I knew there was somethin' FISHY goin' on here...what's MJ's boat doin' w/ numbers from MISSISSIPPI ...I knew he was a "closet reb!!" ...welcome HOME, Brother!!...

Nope they are indeed Ma numbers, My V20 has the same.

Yes we all started out in about the same place!! *Thats pretty funny.
The Bimi came with the boat, But I made the side curtins myself on my wifes sewing machine!!
Not pretty but did the job!! That thing was warm when we had ice on are rods!
But no opening windshield made it hot in the summer! I hated it.

But I really started in a Great Candin Cape Cod Bay canoe. I have a pic some where, I will post when i find it.

Then went on to a 12" sears game fisher with a 6 hp Johnson, There are no pic's of this boat, but we had a blast in it!!

Then came Maco 1 *and then Maco 2

Re: My First Boat

hey BR, I had the same motor,actually a 75,1978 I think, that thing was as smooth as silk and never gave me a seconds worth of trouble. She was mounted on a 15' Glastron/Carlson, had alot of fun on that boat....just ask TheTinMan

Re: My First Boat

My first boat was a 1975 Catalina 22 "Jennie D"
