I troll a lot, that's why I bring a guitar and other distractions. My
boat is also set up as well for just playing around, floating and
swimming, as fishing. I dunno, it has never really bothered me that I
don't catch a lot of fish, I just love fishing. But I do want to get
better so I am working on it. Took the family to Mashapaug (400 acre,
fresh water, NE CT) the other day. Fished for a while, found a great
calico bass spot for fall, and spent the rest of the day on a little
Island with Mrs, JW, my youngest adn my dog, just floating and
sunning...
You want calico bass, we'll go to Black Pond.

I'm bringing the Princecraft back home now that I have a boat down
here so we've got the right boat for the pond.

Not that the Brockaway isn't a nice...er...um...craft. :)
What? You found some marginal dealer who sells etec-rigged boats? :}

Why yes - yes I did. :)

And wonder of wonders, it's not a Parker!!!!

By the way, just FYI, I sent that add to a friend of mine who is
looking for a boat like yours. He's even a four joke...er stroke guy.

You might hear from him although he seemed a little put off by the
price, but the engine hours were attractive.

I basically told him you were a pansy and babied the boat.

Don't know if that will help any. :)


Do your friend a favor. Email me his first name, and tell him if he
contacts me, I'll be glad to offer him a "deal" on the price. I stated
previously I would sell the boat to someone friendly here at a good
discount. A friend of a "friendly" qualifies.


I have a guy coming up from Virginia this coming week who seems
interested. He says he has been shopping "in Florida" and "up North" for
Parkers because the prices are lower there. Lower, he says, because in
Florida, the boats age badly as a result of the never-ending UV and long
seasons, and are "overused in the rough oceans" up North.

I've passed this along - I gave him your email addy also. He's a
decent guy, just particular. He's got a "thing" about Parker boats -
he's always wanted one.

We'll see how that goes.
