LET'S SEE YOUR SUMMER RIDES , RIGS ... PICS PLEASE

[Slob_Samurai]

Loans may be killers but we all know that's the american way. With that being said, my boat was paid for with cash, this years tax return sent me over the top making my purchase feasible.

Not everyone wants to wait till they are 50 so they can buy their new truck and bassboat with cash. If you can afford the payments, have a steady job, and want something a little better than a 20yr old boat with an unreliable rust bucket pulling it, then GO FOR IT...

Enjoy being young, enjoy what you can get away with, you could be dead tomorrow!!!!

Samurai - I couldn't agree more. Nice setup by the way! I haven't seen many of those boats. Has a cool stealth look to it.

What are the decals on the front side?

[Slob_Samurai]

The guy I bought the boat from said he got two free replicas for putting the decals on.

The decal reads:

Perma Trophy

Game Fish Replicas

then the phone # and HSOforum.

I will be removing the decals when I get around to it.

Maiden voyage was made today on Centerville. Water starting coming in by my feet and I thought omg, the boat leaks. Then I realized that I was a dufus and didnt put the plug in. Well, now I know the bilge pump works like a champ

Major rookie mistake... Time to sell my basstracker now...

[Slob_Samurai]

NTW- very nice rig... In a few years I will try to step up with the big boys and go fiberglass. I needed to stay <18ft due to my garage, and try to stay a little lighter cuz I didn't want to put too much strain on my Murano.

My plan is in 5 yrs go back to a truck, and upgrade to a 18-19ft glass boat.

The life of a bass fisherman, always upgrading whether it be your boat, electronics, or gear...

That's kinda funny, sellin out the boat for some free replicas. Hopefully, some Goo Gone will help remove those quickly for ya.

I think everyone has had a "Bill Dance" moment. At least the pump worked!

that riverboat looks like it would make a stellar bowfishing rig

[Supercrew]

I was going to take mine out of the garage today, get some gas in it, now that it is water ready and all polished up, take some pics to post, but it is raining here...... I don't want to get it wet.....LOL

This thread is almost like a boat show without leaving the house... thanks.

[CATransplant]

Well, it ain't much, but it's mine, and it's a great solo rig for the North Metro lakes.

[hamms-scooter]

That looks like a great little boat! I say if it gets you out on the water who cares!!! I have a 1970 starcraft 16' ugly green color that has grown on me and a 15 hp johnson is all. It gets me out there and the fish cant tell the difference what you're using.

[BrdHunter01]

Come on guys.... Everyone knows if you don't have a $50,000 boat with a $50,000 truck you won't catch ANY fish!

LOL

[Eric Wettschreck]

CATransplant, I love the Not Lund all rigged up and ready to go......and in the background the Ranger has the cover over it and looks parked!!!!!

[snoozebutton]

Same boat as last year but pulling it with an F150 this year.

[no bait nate]

not to pretty but has a good layer of fish slime on the tape since the first time i had her out. was a great graduation present from my dad 6 years ago. I made an upgrade this year from the '57 SeaHorse 18 to an 80's model SeaHorse 15 which purrs like a kitten.

[tigertrout]

bought it 10 years ago from a fellow FM'er ... 31 years old and still going strong!

[WallyGader]

Might be my first!! Boat and motor are 02. Yamaha is a 4 stroke 30 hp. What do you guys think this is worth?

[bassNspear]

tiger,

that looks like a classic! How does it ride?

[Tom Linderholm]

A wise man once told me "You can't put a price on fun!"

[coombia21]

Wally-did you buy that yet? it is still listed on the internet I was going to try to pick that one up this week.

[bturck]

Rost, just paging through all of these and saw your rig, identical to mine except I've got a Merc. on mine. I really like my rig. Looks like you're all set as well.

Here is my baby...

Bass Cat!! That is the same brand I am looking at right now. I am a walleye guy but don't troll at all and love the decks on the bass boats. How do you like the Bass Cat?

Rich-Ive owned quite a few boats. This is the most well built boat I have owned. And anyone I have ever had in my boat loves everything about it. Mine is the Puma, its 20'4".. Honestly, I cant say a negative comment about the boat or the company.

[jigginjerk]

Rigged and Ready I give up!##%@
