Dream boat?

Featured Replies

I got my dream boat in 2004 a ranger 205 with a 225 merc! Just wondering what would be everyone's dream boat if they could have it today?

That is a sweet boat and congrats by the way. I'd have to go with a combo fish/ski boat to keep the family happy, so my pick would be the Nitro 290 Sport with a 225 Merc. The Z-7 sport would be a nice consolation prize.

Nice, please don't tell my wife they make those! ;D

mine is out side as i post this 21ft Allison its like the Marine corp THE FEW THE PROUD  ;):o

I am a lucky guy!! my fishing buddy just bought my dream boat!! a 2011 Ranger riata(fish & ski) 20.5ft with a 275 Merc, he lives on the water 5 mins from me, I can't wait for spring!!!

A Nitro Z-9 CDC With a 250 OptiMax sure would be nice..  ;)

One that doesn't come with payments. ;)

A RiverPro 201 Low Pro RCC...those hard to get to river Smallies would become much more accessible.

oops...forgot the link for anyone intersted.

Floats, maintenance free and 20mpg.  ;)

I own my dream boat ! ;) No, seriously. Sure, I'd like to also own a 200 footer, that I could travel the worlds oceans in. And maybe 6 or 12, 40 foot houseboats, to be parked around at different lakes across the US...

A nice big, 24ft inland saltwater boat would be great too.

But as for a fresh water / bass fishing boat, mine is just all me ! I absolutely love my 14ft baby :)

When I look at the high performance bass boats which you guys either already own, or wish you could, I see some really amazing pieces of machinery, technology, art, etc,..... and I do really appreciate them, for what they are..... Very much in the same way I see some of those amazing motorcycle builds on TV, and think to my self, That thing is bad-arse .....even though I don't / won't ever ride a motorcycle.

Also, I have to say, if I could afford it, I'd own a stupid huge, fully customized F650 truck.... just because it would look cool, and be fun to drive. I know one company that makes them, and they start at $170K !!!

The point being, I sure couldn't knock somebody who had this same attitude toward their bass boat.

It's just for me, those boats are just too much boat and they would only get in my way, and slow me down (figuratively speaking, of course).

Peace,

Fish

Isn't she purdy ;)

Me too.  I had mine in for service last week and there is a 210 Elite DC sitting in the showroom.  I think I wiped most of the drool off of it. :;)

X2. I don't want a 20 ft. glitter barge, just a simple fishing boat would do nicely.

That's easy something I can fish in, that someone else pays for, I can use all the time, and it fills itself up with gas.

Thank you Vinny ;)

I really love my truck too. But I have to tell you, while maybe 1 in 20 people will come up to me and just freak the heck out about how "they just love my truck.... and they never saw one done like that... that color, and blacked out too"..... about another 15 out of 20 will just look at it from the corner of their eye, with this look that says;

"OMG ! It's not white ! It's not a Super Crew cab ! How could a guy possibly blend in with the crowd in that oddball thing" ?!?! .... :o LOL

Which is quite alright. As when I see a white, Supercrew, with chrome rims, I always think.... "Yawn. Geeez, I'm sure getting sleepy" ;) LOL

Really though, wouldn't it be a ***** to walk out of the grocery store, looking for your white super crew cab.... among like 20 other white supercrew cabs ? :)

One things for sure, I've walked out to some really big, slam full parking lots, and I've never seen not even one blacked out, Stone Green truck ! It is certainly about as oddball as I am :) Just a perfect match :)

Peace,

Fish

For Bass Boat, it would have to be a Bass Cat Eyra with a 250 Yamaha SHO or a Tuned Hyrotech VMax. 

or a

Allison BasSport Pro with a Mercury Pro XS racing engine

Who says going fast and fishability don't go together!

That's a beautiful boat!

Stratos 210 since it is pretty much a Champion with Stratos stuck to the side.
