Danno Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Junk is a term I use for just about everything. Actually, I really dig this boat. When I take my daughters out, I leave my stuff at home and have a blast watching them catch brim and bluegill on crickets all day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted November 1, 2005 BassResource.com Administrator Share Posted November 1, 2005 There's some really nice boats in this thread. Heck, any boat that gets you out there is nice. Keep it coming! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minuteman Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Don't laugh, at least it floats. The boat I mean. I just got the Jeep that was used for a hauling a bass boat by the previous owner, but I'm waiting till spring for a boat and trailer unless I find something till then that I don't need a loan for. This boat will then be stored at a local reservoir that has a 10 day quarantine and allows electric motor only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDbasser Posted November 2, 2005 Author Share Posted November 2, 2005 I'm sure not laughing!!! My very first boat (using the term loosely) was a water scamp that I bought at a garage sale for $25 I used to haul it around on top of a 1978 Ford Fairmont.

Low_Budget_Hooker Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Won't hear me laughing,.....I am the jon boat fanatic. Love 'em! Glenn-was watching the 5 minute powepoint presentation Art sent me from CAST. I could have sworn I saw your boat in there. I said to myself that it was worth it to have one with custom colors because the fact that I just picked your boat out in a passing pic, proves it.

My neighbor is selling a 16' CC with a 25HP Mariner for $1500.00. If you are interested. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a retirement gift. i could see from your house you were more than likely from so. calif. i left orange county for texas last year and the one lake i miss more than anything is Naciemento in central calif. You will definitely want to take your new boat there for a week in April before the summer hits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
