Nice boat!
You are way a head of me. Mine is an old, fully rebuilt by me, basstracker with a 28 hp Johnson.
It has been a great boat and has been all over the country fishing with me. Great to trailer and cheap to run. But it is not pretty at all
I think my electronics are worth more than the boat.
I will admit I dream about a new boat all the time....

thanks guys, but nothing wrong with ya'lls boats at all. i was just blessed enough to get a deal on that one. i had a 1979 16ft procraft with a merc 80 horse that i bought for $400 and used it for years. loved that thing. so i feel lucky i got one like this one. i just hope it will catch fish like my old ones did!

Old duck/fishing boat, we added a deck to the front for the bow mount trolling motor and bass fishing seat, overall pretty comfortable and I don't have to worry about scratches, etc. That is the "glass half full" view.

When I fish big water it is out of a 1996 Sprint 262
When I fish the skinny water it is out of a 14ft Alumicraft
If you see the Sprint on the water stop and give me a shout. I have had it since new and of the very few Sprint owners I met around here never seen another with my color scheme.

Astro 201FS with a 200 Merc. With three kids and a wife that all like to fish a bass boat doesn't work out too well. Never could get comfortable running down the lake with little kids perched on the front deck like hood ornaments.
