Hmmmm...

What would it take for you to take it out with me along for the ride?
So to speak. :)

I am sure a demo ride can be arranged for you. As for me, I have zero
interest in buzzing around Buzzard's Bay at 65 mph in a 24' boat with
gunnels 18" above the water.

Just think of it as a Porsche on a test run. Think about it - it's
has a big engine, handles well and is really fast.

Only it's a boat.

On water.



You think the Porsche would tow one of these?

This is one sexy looking boat .... (black hulled Yellowfin 24)

I agree with the black hull - that is slick looking.

I like those Verados on a boat that size. I wouldn't turn one down if
it was offered with a boat as a package. I would prefer ETECs, but
that's a good second choice.

My Ranger is technically a "bay" boat, but the hull is actually a
Ranger 620 hull with a CC and T-top. It has a sharper bow entry than
most bay boats.

Ranger made them off the 620 for two years, dropped the 20 until 2005,
then brought it back with this which is a completely different boat.

I don't like the styling of the new Bay Rangers.

I get a lot of comments on my boat and they are always positive

What's that bar in the water behind the motor? Here's a picture of it
out of the water...

It's called a Power Flounder Gigger. Basically, you drift along the
beach uisng a light at night and when you see the shape of of a
flounder in the sand, you press the button and it gigs the flounder,
brings it up to the surface, the pole rotates and delivers a freshly
gigged flounder.

It can also be used for a trailer jack.

Sometimes it's used to position the boat - you set the pole into the
bottom to hold the boat in position. Handy in a tidal rip or on a
flat to keep you from drifting too close to structure, the beach or
such as that.

It's called a "power pole". Used as a shallow water anchor when fishing.
