Just an update.
I cannot find plans for a walk around boat that has an outboard engine. The best thing I can find is a center console so I think I'm gonna go with that. I won't be able to sleep on it but who needs sleep when the stripers are around? The plans say it's an 18 foot CC but it can be lengthened to 19 like one fella did. I think 18 is fine for the sound, even calmer days on the ocean. I know some guys who go out on 12-16 footers and they have no problems.
I'm gonna post a picture here of this boat, remember this guy lengthened it to 19 feet. My boats gonna be a foot shorter. It has a nearly 8 foot beam.
Also, this thursday, I'm going to get my learners permit to drive a car. I don't like the things but the bike is making the tush hurt and my lower back constantly gets pulled. If the bluefin don't drag me under and kill me, the car will. Then I figure I can get the driving license in a month. I've driven before and it doesn't seem too hard. I just need the road hours and confidence.
John, I don't have a job persay, but it is right around the corner I tell ya. Application is filled out, my hair is cut, I'm all nicely shaved. I just need to find a decent shirt. I refuse to go into any job wearing a t-shirt. Show up, take care of business. I'm a night owl as you can see by my posting times, stores pay better if you work at night. Here, night shift at a supermarket, 9 or 10 bucks an hour is nice for the work.
I figure I can work my shift, come home, do some work on the boat and still get some nice hours of Zzzzs in. My mom works during the day so I can probably snag the car for an hour after work and make some casts.
It's all coming together nicely for me. That's my style. I sit back, take a look at my life, see what I want. Then I piece it together accordingly.
Anyways, enough talk, here's the boat. Built by Bob Aronson from Vista, CA. Lengthened to 19'. I probably wouldn't have those bow rails because I'm looking for a sleeker look with the ability to lip a big old bass whereever she tires out.
