Charlie's new V20

[charlie_the_tuna]

Thanks Phat. Thanks all. Snow all but gone, but it was about 20 degrees out. Spare, at this point I’m looking for the cheapest dragin wagon I can find. Work is half a mile from my house. Local ramp is half a mile from my house. I don’t give a rat’s a$$ what it looks like. 2nd ramp is 3.5 miles from my house.
I can’t wait to get this thing water ready. My little guy is already rigging up. Needs a bit of this and that, and my wife can’t wait for “I TOLD YOU SO”.
I hope this thing is ready to go. I don’t have two nickels to rub together.

Alright, Charlie! Can't wait for the spring thaw and reveal!

no problem, Charlie, any more u want posted, just email to me

if u want to get ready for saltwater fishing, go sit in your shower with the cold water on and flush $100 dollar bills down the toilet

that's the closest thing I've found

Charlie - just wear some good rain gear in the shower and you'll be fine. Maybe a 2nd job to provide the $100 bills.

Hey guys. I found a guy on Facebook with an almost identical setup. He says he got decent numbers. Talked about what a light boat it is. I never thought of these as light.
Providing it’s not waterlogged, what’s the weight on a 92?

We have an ‘06 Yukon Denali and it tows our ‘85 I/O on dual axle trailer with brakes on one axle like it’s not even back there. There are a lot of the Chevy version of that rig out there - not super gas mileage, but you’re doing short tows. Another benefit is that you can throw a lot of stuff in the rig, out of the weather and locked up. A lesser known feature (at least on ours) it the very tight turning radius - maneuverability is better than any rig I’ve ever had.

I think one of the guys suggested this vehicle in some earlier thread.

[phatdaddy]

the hull should be around 3400-3500 lbs

motor between 350-375 lbs

not sure of kicker, 100-150 lbs

gas 360 lbs

1200 lbs of misc & crew

all are guestimates, your mileage may very

I'm looking forward to it. She looks nice, with a 15 hp kicker too!
