2100CC

That's a nice boat, Harry. I'm sure you're going to enjoy it.

Another positive side is that a nice boater will be getting a "deal" 2
or 3 years from now on a barely used Parker 2100CC. ;-)

Congrats on doing your part to keep the boating industry chugging along.
I've not been on-line much round here, but curious to know the reasoning
behind the decision. Where you simply not using the bigger one as much
as you initially thought? Costs to operate? Granted the used one was a
deal for someone, I expect not everything you had into it you got out
from it.

I am also thinking of downsizing a bit to get into skinnier water than
the current one allows. I mean I could go more places, but them stinkin
seas grasses clog up the intake. No seriously, I've been observing and
realized more and more it is myself and maybe one other for fishing, few
times a year we take another couple or more for a ride. I figure let
them get their own boat suffer a bit less of creature accommodations
while I'd prefer a boat that truly suits my needs 90% of the time.

I bought the Parker a few years ago, with the hopes of going out fishing
a lot with my wife. Alas, she's been involved academically for the last
couple of years, and will be until late next spring. Most of my fishing
buddies have other interests, too, so when I wanted to go fishing, at
least half the time I was doing it solo. I could launch and retrieve the
boat on the ramp okay by myself, but then I was facing the scrub-down,
the removal of gear, the whole catastrophe, as it were. Also, trailering
that boat any distance required time in planning and effort that made it
more trouble than it was worth.

So, I decided to sell the Parker. Once I got serious about selling the
boat, it took about 3-1/2 weeks to find her a new home.

The new owner and I both made out well on the sale.

That's a laugh. You were the one who stuck his nose up in the air when
Harry offered to take you out on Yo Ho.

Once, maybe. Unless you know another hard core union Democrat suffering
from narcissism.

I don't know why, but bringing herring aboard on a fishing trip probably
is like bringing a banana aboard...bad luck, bad joss, bad karma.

BTW, how's your mom doing? Hope all is well..

And, how was your weekend trip? Did you win the race, or did I
misunderstand the intent of the trip?
