Woo hoo, heck of a nice tin boat Willy! You are crappin in the high cotton now!

Hows about a jet drive on that 60hp 4-stroker - that would get you up in some ankle deep water....

I know one thing - you are gonna love the gas mileage!

Congrats!

Thanks Cy and Blue, don't need a jet on it, nothing I am going to fish with a V bottom is that shallow. Plus two guys I met that use them for the Delaware River sold them, did not like em for a variety of reasons. Real good I believe if you are running shallow rocky rivers like those western boys do in Alaska but otherwise a prop does fine.
It will be easy for me to launch and haul etc. which is what I need right now. I also need to get back to fishing the nice lakes and rivers I got here right near me.
I can still hit the bay for stripers and fluke, no problem with this set up. It has pretty deep hull and only drafts 8" so that will get me a few spots high and low tide others don't fish. Plus I'll be camo'd up, I'll sneak in on them fishies

;D
