hammer, when i get a chance and figure out how, i will post pics, but i think some of you may already know the boat. i bought it from marc in long beach... you might know him as fishmaster63. i saw that he lived nearby and contacted him to ask if he would sell. when he called me back he said that he had just picked up a new boat and sure could use the money. i went to see it and later that day i was pulling her home.

the last time I was out [2 wks. back] I felt like I couldn't trim down to where I needed to be. Heading toward a favorite flukin' spot, seas where loose, 1 1/2 -2 ft. and I know that quartering into it wasn't any help, also heading into the wind, about 10 - 12 mph. The boat was bouncing pretty good....not the ride I am used to because I think the boat rides wonderful. Even my friend noticed a difference in the ride. I came to the conclusion that I've got two batteries side by side just foward of the transom [about 100 lbs.] a FULL tank of fuel, [ 1986 cuddy model, gas tank is somewhat aft] the bimini top was up and into the wind, and lastly, I had little in the way in the way of gear up in the bow. Well, on the way back [no keeper fluke] I dropped the top, the wind was now behind us , and I suppose I burned 1/4 tank....the ride was much better.....tabs will make any boat ride better in nearly all field conditions. I don't think I need to run out and get trim tabs but that Prematrim thing might be worth looking into

I was curios about the pricing and the U.S. distributor
did not have pricing on the website.

Here is the answer I got from them:

Since Permatrims are custom made to match your engine and its color I would need a model engine and your size boat to quote you. For any of the bigger engines (90hp and above) they run between $139 and $211.

Thank you,

Andy

Hey Charlie, that's cool that you bought FM's boat. Does it still have the hard top on it? Also, was it the one with a 225 Honda on the back? If so, that heavy motor may be what is keeping your nose up.
