JeffB Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 LOL @ MM, at least you had a motor.. my first was a sevelor inflatable, and I sat on the back with swim fins... I was pretty weedless though, and rarely ran out of gas. LOL Swim fins, I think I would run out of gas everyday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pro V's R Us Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Thanks guys! I am very happy with it. I had ran Lunds for years. I was not even in the market to buy a new boat but, I fished the Wave Wacker out of a 1890 last year and I was done. By far the nicest rig that I have fished out of. Sorry to ramble. Can you tell that I am excited!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassNspear Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 We've got her up to the upper 70's. They had one in Florida where they build them with two 200's on it that went 120 mph. Pretty cool. But the best thing is that with the catamarans it is really stable and it skips across the top of rollers. So when you would normally be getting beat up in a V haul, we can usually get her on top of the waves barring the occasional rogue wave. Thats awesome. Glad you love the boat!

jwmiller33 Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 LOTW---very nice job man! i am actually doing a very similar project on my 1985 Lund S-16 Delux. You did a real good job on the carpeting... i was just curious, did you use carpet adhesive? did you also use a nail gun on the back side? that was my process, and i was jus wondering what your process was. great job again!

I've been in tillers with the bigger motors. Now days with the power steering and all the gadgets, they are pretty easy to handle. The Warrior is a sweet ride for sure.

toddb Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Srj,Old Triton is history, long story to be told over a beer or 8. I'm sure our paths will cross this summer, maybe we can even drag old fisky out of the weeds. If you like the Allure, I have another brand new one in Brainerd at CP, which is the warranty replacement for the old aluminum triton. See you this summer.toddb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pro V's R Us Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 The 150 is no problem with the power steering. It is a very open floor plan to have a 20' boat with nothing in the way. Just think about it, if the fish are not biting I can always bring a bowling ball and pins! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
311Hemi Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 My new Crestliner 1850 as of a couple weeks ago....not a good pic but the only decent one I have. The first outing two weeks ago on Owasso. LOTWSvirgin.....here's my dad's Bass Tracker. Bought it new in 85' and has severed it's purpose well. Might be selling it now though as I have a new rig. Will be hard to see it go with all the trips to Canada it has made. We did have to replace the main floor in it a number of years ago, and a few of the other areas in the rear. Livewell had to be removed as well so that's not long functional. Looks like there is room for some storage space up front under the deck in between the ribs, never new that as we did not replace the front deck.

srj Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Todd, might be in Brainerd this weekend--if so, I will check out CP. Sounds like a mighty nice warranty replacement and gotta be interesting--I will buy!If you ever get over east and need a dock spot, I finally got the floater in last summer in Bostic---tie up anytime.Steve J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
