Default Video of the Rogue River run. I think the vid was taken Friday, so my boat is not in it

Nice vid. I really like all that metal.
Looked like a sweet come-along too, but I didn't quite get its
purpose.
Saw one boat without a kicker.
You have a kicker on yours?

they were straightening a pump guard bar. The bald guy is tom Maxfield,
builder of Precision Weld boats. That blue boat is an 8.1.L powered boat
and cost about $100k. The boat I rode in was a 25' Yanmar diesel jet.
About $130k. My 21' would sell new now for about 70k. Yes i have a kicker.
Lots of the guys troll for fish and the jet is not the best for trolling.
