How many boats?

How many boats do you have? I see some guys have river boats and some with their big hp and some with their 15hp ( which is my big hp). How many working fishable boats do you have and how many do you use? I have the one at the moment and working on #2!

Sitting at the cabin right now:

Tracker Pro Guide V-16 (75HP Merc 4 Stroke)

14 Foot Ward's Sea King (7.5HP Merc)

12 Foot ?????? (4 HP Mariner when my uncle is around, otherwise row baby row)

And some Pelican paddle boat (which is actually fairly fishable, my brother and I got some funny looks when we carried that into a motor-less lake).

They all get used at some point throughout the year.

Not all fishing boats but....

24 ft pontoon

22 ft antique wooden speed boat

20 ft ski boat

18 ft sailboat

17 ft canoe

14 ft fishing boat

12 ft paddle boat

10 ft wave runner

(this is between me and my parents, but we share them all)

They all get used pretty regularly except the sail boat.

1 16' Canoe

2 Trying to figure out how to get an old 16' with a 15hp since paddling solo in my canoe is for the birds.

Those 14-16 ft alum with 15-25 motor are a great setup. Classic, Simple, Versitile. Tough to beat for the price.

a 13 1/2 ft canoe.

I'd have an affordable aluminum boat and 25hp motor if I had a place to keep one, but alas I'm still apartment-bound in minneapolis.

At least I'm saving on gas every time I'm out on the water though wink

18' 150hp

16' 50hp

20' pontoon 25hp

14' 15 hp

12' duck boat

two 10' duck boats

We call it The Fleet.... now, notice I didn't put years with them, haha, as they aren't new! Our wives give us carp, oh well, they knew what they were in for when they signed up wink

16' Crestliner - 1973 for fishing

14' Alumacraft - Unknown mid 70's? for hunting I suppose (VERY SHALLOW could be used for rivers or hard to reach lakes.... It's basically a canoe with a flat back end.)

the 6hp Evinrude does double duty at this point in time! I just need to either fix that 15hp or look for something bigger for the main rig!

14' Lund with a 25 HP Johnson (main fishing boat refinished nicely)

14' Lowe johnboat with a 15 HP Evinrude (river fishing/ducks)

12' Lowe vhull with a 6 HP sea-king (duck hunting only)

17' Grumman canoe

I would really like a bigger boat, something in the 16'-18' range with a 100+ HP four stroke so I could fish big water like leech and vermilion effectively. Preferably a big tiller motor. Nothing like holding 150hp in the palm of your hand grin
