so HangEmHigh was out catching dolphin to 15 lbs today.
![]() Running good. and liability insurance WILL pay the $1000 to float it. ![]() He''l probably change the transmission fluid one more time. Needs a new Fishfinder cause it was down in the cabin. Autopilot just wants to turn right. He has a line on a junker of the same model that might have a good electric panel and fridge.

I'm not positive, you'll have to ask one of the old guys but, I do believe this qualifies for membership in The Esteemed Order of the Norton Snaggers.
