15 minutes to late, the guy was taking cash for it as we spoke,
bummer. Hope it went to a good home.


There are lots of Whalers out there.


Thanks for the encouraging words, I guess I won't jump out the window
yet. Of course if I did I would just screw up the lawn. 1 story

Snooze and lose.

Seriously...........sorry you missed out.

I am considering getting rid of our runabout next year and buying a center
console in the 24 foot range with a single outboard. I am tired of this I/O
crap and cramped space on the runabout.

Take a look at Polar - I really like their 23 foot class CC.

Unfortunately, I can't seem to get it across to them that I don't want
a Yamaha, I don't want a Mercury and just a boat without gages or
engine or controls.

Unbelievable. Like they are selling zillions of boats.

You might also want to take a look at Pathfinder. I took a ride on
one today - their 2300 DV is a very nice boat.

Or Contender which is also a great boat.

I see a lot of Contenders, Whalers, Grady's and Edgewater's around here.

I just broke the news to my wife over dinner............one more summer with
this runabout and we are done with it. She was not happy.

Hell - you want a deal?

I'll give you a deal.

$13,000 will get you my Ranger with low hours 200 FICHT, jack plate,
T-top, new tires on the trailer with new brake pads, spare tire and
various other and ends.

What a bargin.


It is, and I am trying to contact a bud who is into fishing with his
dad and looking to upgrade their bassboat to a boat better suited for
the sound. I am actually going to be more landlocked in fresh water
for a few years so I am looking to get a smaller boat than my current
16 foot workskiff (read lighter, easier to load, unload, push around
the yard on trailer, at my age) I was totally convinced about that
Whaler, if I do buy another boat, it will be something like that I can
take anywhere fast, and fish from all day. I will still keep the
Brockway, that is set up great for family fishing and fun, just needs
more power and a bigger trailer to be more comfortable to use without
a big production.
