new ride
 
I pulled the trigger and put a deposit down.

32' Mirage pilothouse
Single diesel delivers 3.5 miles per gallon, 700 mile range and 30 mph cruise, sleeps 4 (albeit tightly), and has good protection from the shoulder season elements and basic creature comforts and great fish-ability.

It has some issues too and will be a bit of a project and take me a few years to get it the way I want it but the good outweighs the not-so-good. Hope to have it up this way by Christmas. HOHOHO!

One of the best riding boats out there. Very economical and extremely well built. Excellent choice.

Awsome boat, full fish ability, a place to get out of the weather. You lucky dog good luck with her.

Mr. Sandman 10-29-2009 07:52 AM

Thank you all for your well wishes. I have my work cut out for me with this one. Should be fun when it is done, will be a nightmare until then. Step one: Get it here and store it.

Sweet rig, Jim. Your Pocket Battleship.

Fighting Lady Yellow - awesome :btu:
