      One Christmas morning dad got me and my brother a 2 person yellow and blue Sevylor inflatable raft he bought at west marine Came with two oars and a pump and a patch kit. Had the best time taking it to ponds catching bass like crazy. Probably patched it at least 4-5 times before we trashed it.

      I have an excellent 2009 Stratos 294XL with 150HO ETEC. I bought it this year with 63 hours on it. It was garage-kept. It does 63 MPH and has 109 hours on it now. It is a great riding boat, fast enough for me to fish.

    14’ flats are the best boat to learn this river with - bar none! Had a 70s polarcraft with a ‘64 18hp Fastwine Evinrude. Bought from a guy I know worked with for $350 for that boat, motor, trailer, trolling motor, and hummingbird sonar. Gave half ownership to my brother for his birthday and called her the green hornet! Made about a thousand unforgettable memories in that thing, caught the hell out of the fish, and learned everything about pool 8 that young men should know (most of it we learned the hard way). Unbelievable. God bless the man who invented the sheer pin prop design!

    Tracker 14 topper, no mods other than oar locks.
    1990 Ranger 391V, Merc 200.
    This boat was completely destroyed by weather and time. The original owner bought it new and used it one season and let it sit until I bought it for $800 this year. 80hrs on the motor.
    I'm in the process of restoring this boat including buffing the entire gel coat surface top and bottom as well as inside. There were five separate transducers glued to the inside of the hull and one mounted on the transom.
    I have a 93 SV Garmin for the dash and a 106 SV for the bow and a garment Force trolling motor. No poles yet.

    My First Bassboat was an '86 Skeeter Starfire 175 with a rebuilt Yami Precision Blend 175. I bought the rig from the original owner in Belton, TX when I was stationed at Fort Hood. The original owner had a garage built for it with A/C and Heat!! He put a 26p Protester on it, took like 23 minutes to get on plane but when she aired out we got crazy speeds and horrendous chime walk. Loved that boat sooooooo much. Still have a pic of that Skeeter with my sons sitting in it in my toolbox at work.

  • @flippers098
    @flippers098 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I started with a 14ft Alumacraft deep v with an 9.9 Chrysler that I shared with a buddy. Then bought a 1972 JcPenny 16ft deep v with a 20hp. Next was a 12ft smokercraft for a fix and flip. Then I got a bigger 16ft Sea Nymph w/ 60hp merc that we relabeled the Sea Nympho. Then moved to FL where I got a 16ft alumacraft mod v with a 70hp Tohatsu. Got offered a steal for a 2002 Triton TR186 with a 150 EFI that got me hooked on bass boats. Then found a boat that was close enough to a dream boat, which is my current 2014 Legend Alpha 199 with a 225hp Pro XS. Absolutely love that boat and perfect on northern WI flowages.

    First was a Pelican Bass Raider 10e with Minn Kota 34lb thrust Endura, ran a short shaft 3.5hp Mercury four stroke on it for a short time that never ran right. Next was a ‘96 1648 Alumacraft with a 3 cyl. tiller 50hp Johnson and Minn Kota PowerDrive V2 that I bow fished with. Then was 2020 17’ Ambush Bandit with the same motor and trolling motor. Now I bass fish out of a ‘07 Stratos 294XL with a 200hp Yamaha Vmax hpdi, Lowrance Ghost and two Hummingbird Helix 9”s.

    First boat was a 76 17’ silver line with a 70 evinrude, I gutted and rebuilt. Got for free from a friend, used it a year. Then got a 1980 eldocraft (wannabe 300 series ranger) with a 140 Mariner tower of power, another restoration (new lids carpet and seats). Had it for 2 years, then went to a 92 482v ranger with a 175 EFI Mariner, had it 8 years, soooo many adventures with it. Eventually outgrew it and bought my current rig, an 02 195vs ranger single console and I put a 17 200 vrod on it. Gutted it, made new aluminum lids for it, padded both decks, new carpet, seats, and bobs 6”. Love this boat, it was restoration project I got from a guy that was going through a divorce, all the lids were shot and all the carpet as well. Now it’s like brand new.

Loved that little v-bottom and should've kept it for these small lakes, creeks and rivers here in the Panhandle. Got some great small water w/double digit lm bass. Gonna have somebody wet sand and buff out the glass for me. The motor runs great but the reverse keeps coming out of adjustment, to the point where there is no reverse.

    What's up Andy!!!🤓 the skeeter Starda 80 was one of the most underrated boats. For it's size it was good fishing and good going with the right motor. #1 boat for the low budget man🏆 What about that trolling motor battle that I've been suggesting for the last 10 years😜🤪

    In 1986 I bought a 1979 16'8" Champion with an inline 6 cyl Mariner. Had it until 2002. In 2015 I bought a 1998 Cobra 201D with a 1998 200hp Johnson Venom that I still own and it's still going. Both of these boats were (are) still great boats.

    1997 Javelin 379b with 115 intruder. Best motor I've had so far. Still ran like a sewing machine
    2005 Aries 200 tournament with 150xr6. Good motor but wanted to upgrade and put a 200 carbed opti on it and hated it.
    2006 Stratos 294 pro xl with opti dfi. Just bought it so still learning the boat but so far no issues

    1960 15ft fiberglass shell lake half V with a Johnson 7.5hp, a 1983 14ft grumman v bottom 25hp Chrysler which surprisingly ran fantastic, I now own a 2021 Tracker 175 TXW with a 20hp merc looking to put something bigger on it maybe a Suzuki not sure a 60hp or 70hp. I love talking boats out of all of the boats I've owned I really miss the shell lake what a great boat.

    Started with a 1436 SeaArk with a 6hp Johnson, and still own it. Was given a 1984 galaxy, still own it, and I picked up a 1999 Champion 181 DC with a Johnson 150 this summer. This show pushed me over the fence thanks so much 😂😂). I drove from Michigan, to Kentucky to get the boat.
    The boat honestly looks like it just came off the showroom floor.
    I have fished the shit out of it this summer.

    When my brother and I were both in college we bought an old discovery marine “DMI” 16.5 foot aluminum v-hill from the 90’s with a Yamaha 50 4 stoke from like 2006. We put a badass minnkota on and a garmin unit. Lake, river, bay, salt ponds, ocean or does it all. Only boat we have owned so far. He wants a center console next I want a bass boat next. Perfect

    First boat was a 1984 18ft champ which we put a 225 mercury on it and it was way too much. Blew that up and then bought the boat which I currently have which is a 1997 champ 191 elite with the 200efi mariner on it. Love love love the damn boat!

    Bought my first boat in between 5th and 6th grade it was a 98 Bass Hound 10.2 an older 89 Johnson 8 horse. Stepped up to a 1983 Ranger 320V with an old Merc 75. Ditched that for a 1996 Johnson 88 spl, was a sweet little ride. After that I bought a 1997 Ranger Sport R70 with an Evinrude 130 and had that up until mid way through this summer. Bought myself a 2016 Ranger Z518C with a 200 Mercury Pro XS. I have a feeling I'll have this one for a good long while

    1999 sprint 207 DC limited with a Johnson 225ho. Badass good looking boat and was scary fast. Now I’ve got a javelin 17 venom with a Johnson 90hp and it’s a awesome boat as well. Also got a 14ft tracker with a Johnson 15hp. Can’t you see the trend with the Johnson outboards absolutely love ‘em.
