It's down to four at this point...

Grady White Canyon 336. The dealer is coming around - slowly, but
coming around to my viewpoint that as a Yomama dealer, he would be in
a better position to sell the current engines on the boat than I
would. He's not totally convinced of that, but he's starting to talk
more like he might actually commit to it. This is looking promising.

Contender 35. Oh mama - I'm getting really serious about this one -
found one with very low hours down Greenwich way and looked at it
today. I'm even willing to put up with the engines - for the summer
anyway. In the fall, it's repower with ETECs.

And it's a Contender.

Did I mention that it's a Contender? :)

Pursuit 335. Saw a sister ship at the same marina I saw the
Contender. I like the looks of this boat very much. This might be a
possibility as a new boat. I called the dealer yesterday and he got
back to me this morning. Sound like he's not at all upset about my
engine choice and depending on pricing, we might be able to work
around the Yomama problem.

Hydra-Sports 3300 CC. Pure fishing machine with great storage and
features - liked this one a lot. Saw one with Mercs on it - Verados.
Makes a very nice looking package with the dark blue hull.
Unfortunately, I'm a white hull guy and while I would consider Verados
as opposed to ETECs, I can get one new with ETECs. Which I wouldn't
do, but I would have it pre-rigged for ETECs.

So that was my day pretty much. To tell the truth, I want to pull the
trigger in the next couple of weeks. Which means that the Contender
is probably the way I'm going to go unless I can get one of the other
boats quick.

We'll see.
