My nephew, Nick, who you have seen consistently out fish me on my boat, turned 14 last week. His grandfather and father decided he should have his own fishing boat. I completely agreed.

16' Aluma Craft with a 40 4 stroke. They brought it out to the lake on Saturday.

The first splashdown

Nick at the helm.

His boat is prettier than mine, but, uncle Lee is still "king of the lake"

Jealous!

nice looking boat!

Not a bad "starter ride".

Most folks would love to have a rig like that at any age, let alone fourteen. Very nice. May he make many happy memories aboard her.

Next on the list, in two or three years, a tow vehicle. May I suggest:

Niceee ride....And great to see a young man into a great sport like Bass fishng

NO WAY. Uncle Lee gets one of those first.

That is awesome! I bet that was a great feeling to be able to do that for him! I hope he appreciates how great his family is.
