![]() Well here is the only picture I could find of the ole girl. This picture is on Polaroid and yes thats me standing beside the boat on the concrete slab and that's my dad in the boat. That boat went places V20's weren't really meant to go. She fished every Virginia Beach Small Boat Marlin Tournament for 9 years in a row. The memories are priceless. I'm blessed for being raised in the enviroment that I was. I guess on days like today that's what your truelly thankfull for!!!! |

That boat was always kept imaculate!!! Until you started gaffing bluefins and she was all down hill from there. The original "Kracker Jack" ran a 50 gallon main tank and we retro fitted 2 20 gallon black acid jugs to both sides of the console. For electronics she had fairly new technology with the Sea Ranger loran c, and Sea King paper bottom machine. 16 foot outriggers and a 6 gunwale rod holders and a shotgun holder for a total of 7 rods (5 6/0's and 2 9/0's). We fished that boat every weekend weather permitting. Such good times!!!
