YOUR OTHER BOAT

[NOTHING ELSE MATTERS]

So guys,if you don't mind, what is your other ride(s), besides the skiff(s)?

[brokebeach5011]

This One.It's a little older than me at 42.Dad gave it to me about 8 years ago.I need to refurbish it.And put it under a shelter.

[hogtown_usa]

I've got a 12' Sea Nymph that's awesome with my 10hp Johnson Seahorse (1953 model) on the back. She jumps right on plane. However, most of time it uses a Minn Kota 36 instead. It's great for fishing small lakes, but I've had it out in the Roanoke Sound on NC's Outer Banks.

Then I've got a 1986 Rinker Wedge 15' with a 140 Mercruiser I/O. This will be for sale as soon as the weather warms up a little. Nice boat, but not what I want for fishing down on the coast. The floors getting a little soft too.

I also had a SCAT hovercraft, but I sold it last year. Flew it around the yard once, never got on the water.

009 I'll post some pictures after I sign up with photobucket. Maybe tomorrow, it's past my bedtime! ;D

[Bad Chicken]

My other boat is a 2005 Sweetwater FC180 pontoon. It's basically like putting an outboard on your living room set. I have it decked out for bass and speck fishing. It's very comfortable and is a great all around boat for lake cruising and fishing. It does however require a certain amount of care and upkeep which makes it somewhat of a PITA. I have no trailer for it so it stays in the water in the Clermont, FL chain of lakes. The skiff is my go anywhere, fish anywhere, always ready, no fuss, lets get out on the water, come home rinse it off, and you're done boat!

[NOTHING ELSE MATTERS]

I have a 1972 or 1973 grady 192 with 140 johnson,no picture on this computer.
A 2007 grady 330 express with twin F250's.
A 1964 wooden boat 5.25 meter in Greece with 8 HP diesel/gas combo engine.

[Slab]

Jeez, I thought I was bad with two boats, but some of you guys (Big fish 3) are just pain nuts! clonk

My other boat is a Sea Ray 220 Sundeck with 5.0L mpi Bravo three duoprop, a great run-about the wife likes so much she let me get the skiff for fishing. 014

[hogtown_usa]

As promised, here is a picture of one of my other boats. This was taken in Nags Head, NC a few summers back. I'm going to sell this one as soon as the weather warms up. The red one belongs to my youngest brother. The big ones belong to someone richer than me. Note the skiff on the right. That's not mine either. ;D

Is that a Bud Davis Boat. Looks like the new 27' he has out.... Hogtown is that yours???

[hogtown_usa]

I wish. ROTFLMAO Mine is the little one docked next to my brother driving his R/C boat. I'm not sure what the one across the creek is. It's not real new because that photo was taken about 3 years ago. I can look at the full resolution picture when I get home from work and maybe tell you what brand it is. BTW, the boat behind the bush I think is a Parker.

That's ok I can tell it's a Buddy Davis by the bow flare. www.banddboatworks.com
They have made about 50 of those hulls since 2003 I think. Now they have a new 34' cc/cuddy that looks like a battlefish of Center Consoles.

[hogtown_usa]

I checked my photo. That's the name of the boat on the side, not the manufacturer. Name of that boat is Rhythm n Blues.

I tried to put in a pic and evidently I'm technologically challenged, because that didn't work out.

[workinprogress]

I'm no boat guy, but NEM, that's one HE** of a boat you've got. There sure are a lot of you with more than one boat. Me--I just have the j16 in my miniature fleet, and it's not even operational yet. Since I don't have 6-8 boats, maybe I'll be able to upgrade someday (probably about 15 years from now) and I can squeeze TooTall for every penny the old j16 is worth. Just kidding TooTall, I hope you hit the lottery.

[TooTall]

I better hit the lottery if I want a Buddy Davis 28'

[Willie]

samurai361, here is a good link for ya for posting pictures and when you do post em, make them either 640 x 480 or the next smaller, keep on skiffin Willie

[218Elite08]

I have two other boats. My jon boat is a 14ft Lowe 1448MV (modified V boat). I have two motors for it a 25 HP Johnson 2 stroke and a Mercury 9.9 HP 4 stoke. My "pride and joy" is my 2007 Ranger Z20 powered by a Evinrude Etec 225 HO. It has just about everything I could ask for in a bass boat. ;D

[Loki]

Man Brian, that is one awesome boat! Can you give us any numbers on it?

Slim, sweet boats. Specially the Sea Pro, big enough to take offshore, small enough to tow comfortably. I have one question though, why the Sea Ark instead of another CS?


Mike

[Slim to None]

Loki- i had decided on a 198 DLX and was getting the money together to go and buy one when a good family friend said he would sell his Sea Ark real cheap. i bought it for less than 1/2 what i would have paid for the DLX. i am liking the idea of an aluminum boat more and more. it makes it nice fishing the shallow oyster/rock bars not worrying about dragging bottom. so my next skiff purchase has just been put on hold for awhile. the next boat i buy might be a 238 DLV or even the 258. since i have a good rigged inshore boat, i'm thinking of getting one that is capable of running offshore. 015

[Tawn]

360', 80,000HP, runs forever on a tank of fuel. Oh ya, it has about 268 cup holders.

http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/hh80/Trepang/laclass-submarine.jpg

How much would it cost to charter something like that? ;D

[NOTHING ELSE MATTERS]

Tawn, nice ride 012 012 I don't see any rod holders though. ;D

[Loki]

Thanks for responding Slim! If you are ever out this way, let me know and we will set something up so you can see how capable a DLV is offshore.

[bobreeves]

Loki - it's free! Just sign up 005

[218Elite08]

Man Brian, that is one awesome boat! Can you give us any numbers on it?


Thanks Loki. 018 It's a 2007 Ranger Z20. It's 20 ft 5 in long. The beam is 95". Bob's 10" hydraulic jackplate. SRS (Soft Ride Seats, shocks in the seats, that ones for dad thumbsup) I have a Lowrance 135X on the bow and a 520C GPS on the console. I have the 8 ft Power Pole with wireless remotes. (The 218 Elite will have that too) Ranger builds their own trailers. Torsion axles, oil bath hubs, disc brakes, Road Armor coating. It's like a bedliner material, but it looks and feels like paint. It's amazing how many "firsts" Ranger has done over 40 years. Check out their web site. 2008 marks their 40th year in business. They have some really cool "flashback" pictures and videos. I bought it from Northlake Marine down on Lake Okeechobee. It's about a 2.5 hour drive one way for me. I have bought all my Rangers from them. It's like they are family. I think it's really hard to find people like that anymore. Speed wise the best # I've seen on GPS is 69.9 MPH. (I don't really care about speed anymore) That number was with me and my dad 30 gals of fuel, Mercury Temptest 25 pitch 3 blade prop, slight chop on the water and half of Bass Pro Shops and Cabela's in the boat. ROTFLMAO I like running that boat. I have at least 6 trips at 70 plus miles each day. It rides so smooth. The Etec is awesome. Price wise...well, let's just say I could have a fleet of C/S boats! 001

**I'd like to take a chance to ask any of you that have not donated to the site please think about doing it. I think we all have benefited from the information on here.** 012

Boogie,
Like you my Indian is far from stock; besides cam-a couple ofther secrets to the S&S that I like to keep under my hat, custom paint, braided cables, all the bags are www.bossbags.com (http://www.bossbags.com), lowed 2", hooker headers, 2 inch over pegs, etc, etc. As I get oldrer my hobbies sure get more expensive!...But I love being in the wind; seems the two hobbies keep me that way. It's nice to have the choice of no helmet in SC. Ride safe!

No you don't, mooniac. She looks a lot like a Catalina 22 I had years ago - used to spend every weekend on board during the summer when I lived in the frozen north. What is she?

Don't pay no attention to all these guys with their stinkpots if they tease you.

[mooniac]

thanks Bob,
she's a 22 O'Day weekender and I am sorry to say she's on the blocks and hasn't seen water in two years. Both of my children wanted to crab, fish, and tube and spent all their time on board the sailboat wondering if we were there yet... any true sailer knows that when you board a sailboat you are already where you want to get! thinking of making a donation of her to a needy scout camp or other charity camp that wants to sail.

Well here is my "other" boat. Technically the J12 isn't mine although Progressive Ins and the State of Fl thinks it is. *thumbsup* I can't imagine the insurance rate for a 15year old owner.

Here is the '98 191 Mako out at one of the spoil islands for a camp out with the kids.

Hopefully I will be posting another one in a few weeks. I am getting ready to pull the trigger on a Pursuit 2870 Offshore. I can't wait to fill the tank on that bad boy. *clonk*

Since a lot more people signed in, maybe we get more responces.

[MartyJ16]

14' Canoe for the backyard lake. Lake not big enough for powerboats. The other boat is not mine, but I crewed on it racing for many years, so I know her from stem to stern. That's me waving at the helicopter. We won the cruising class in that race in 2006.

Other boat is a 30" Victoria RC Sailboat. Does that count?

[NOTHING ELSE MATTERS]

Bump for all the newbies

2 Old Town Canoes (a tandem and a solo)

awesome fishing boats,great fuel burn and cut thru the chop like a hot knife thru butter and built like tanks..

too bad the market crashed before i could unload the KW,i will probably die with that boat...*nutkick*

[NOTHING ELSE MATTERS]

I fished in one of those True World, a 28'er out of Orient point, great boat, but little narrow for my taste. I really like the walkaround, you can actually fish from there.

[chumhead]

My "other" boat is an Emotion Fisherman kayak presented to me by the Host and Producers of Addictive Fishing TV for being the "Mogan Maniac" of the year, (aka: an avid fan of the show) and inspiring one of their shows with some fishing reports I posted on their forum of some grouper I found holding in shallow water (talking 3 to 4 feet deep, 30 feet from shore) and catching them while wade fishing.

This pic was taken in Ft Pierce last year at one of our gatherings.

Now she's rigged with 3 rod holders and lights for night fishing.

Just bought a 218 DLV, havent had it in the water yet. Also have a '06 McKee 196 cc, '86 Wellcraft 25' cuddy with twin outboards (spent ~4 yrs restoring - will never do that again), and my toy which is a '76 Dixie vee bottom fiberglass skiff type boat. Other boats have come and gone but the little Dixie stays. I hoping the CS will be the same.

Safe Boating to all!

[NOTHING ELSE MATTERS]

BUMP, Come on guys and girls. *yay**yay*

[Riverine1969]

My other boat is a custom 19'8" sea kayak I designed and built about 1985. With a straight keel and deep V bottom, it tracks like it's on rails, and is set up for being towed with a parafoil kite that my wife made for me. Turns good if leaned up on it's gunnel. Built in foot pump let's me keep paddling without worrying about water coming in around the spray skirt, in rough water. I have a photo of it in my album

[Marion]

Well, took a little over two years, except for under deck fuel tank, she's done. *Cheers*

[Jaybr]

I sold my Sailfish a few weeks ago and picked up a new "other" boat last week,

A new dealer leftover 2007 Kencraft Sea King 230cc with twin Yamaha 150 four strokes.

[Island Man]

What Deepblu said*Cheers*
Didnt realize we had so many kayakers here.

[Riverine1969]

L.F. Herreshoff commented that a kayak offered more fun and satisfaction, than any other kind of boat...........and I agree. I set up our boat primarily to carry kayaks and canoes, and to camp in.

[NOTHING ELSE MATTERS]

riverine, i really, really, really like your yak. Looks like 18-19 feet long?
Is it made out mahogany?
This is what i want to do next, my little son said he wants me to buy him a kayak, so i said no, WE will built one as soon as i'm done with boat projects. That would be a nice built i thing over the winter in the garage.

[Riverine1969]

Nothing Else Matters..........I sent you a E-mail.

[Lhardware]

1999 Suntracker 21' Partybarge 50 hp Merc 4 stroke. Like new condition housed in a Marina 1 mile from my house. This is my pleasure boat to entertain friends. Great ride and very reliable. Sips gas!

Is that the F233 ? just under 30' right ? LOOKS big

Had no idea you we doing a complete restore *kickrock*

[JIMP]

I have a ten foot Sears Jon boat that has been in the family for about 40 years. We used it at our cabin on the river for many , many years. It has a slight seam leak that we have to fix. My grandson has decided that he wants to fix it up and put a small engine on it so he can fish when we don't go out together. I told him after he takes a boating course we will consider it . It will be nice to see it back on the water .fishingsmilie*

[Luv2fish]

I have a 2005 Parker 2120 SC Pilot House for fishing the Chesapeake Bay. I also have a 9 foot single kayak and a Old Town Twin Otter two person kayak. I was fascinated to see the diversity in boats on this thread. I agree with one of the posts that it is amazing how many people have traveled the path to a CS.

Yeap, that's the Formula i'm working on, complete restore and conversion from cuddy to center console.

[joejv4]

I only own one boat in addition to my skiff: a Lowe 1440M aluminum jon that I use on ponds and small lakes where I can't launch something as big as the skiff. I run a 30lb Minn Kota Endura transom mount trolling motor for main propulsion and that is generally sufficient for fishing the small bodies of water where i use this boat.

[rkuch]

I have a three other toys that were must haves:
Kayak,
22ft Harris Sunliner Pontoon with a 80hp Yamaha (family ride)
2005 Yamaha FXHO (speed demon)

Wife wants a paddle boat now so looks like that will be my next toy! Want to keep her happy you know!*003*

38' Chris Craft Catalina that I keep in the Chesapeake Bay (actually the Bohemia River) It's a great floating condo with a view I couldn't afford if it wasn't a boat. Takes a mortgage to fuel up (420 gallons) so if I want to go to a restaurant on the water I usually take the car.

Don't know how to post pics yet.
