NICE BOAT, You look like a HAPPY LIL KID at Christmas Time ..................You should be PROUD Bruce you did a NICE job on it

Over the Last Several Years HAB'S NEEDLEFISH Have Caught More "Confirmed" 30, 40, 50, and even 60 pound Striped Bass than any other Wooden Needlefish on the Market today. 2 Over 50lbs. and 1 Over 60lbs. in 2005 alone........... "HOOK UP WITH HAB'S" Your Best Bet For BIG BASS.....

Looks much better in the water, than sitting in the garage, Slip.

Really like how the bow angles up, although it must of been a little unnerving, at first, riding alone. Great idea extending the throttle control. Your daughter balances it out nicely.

That's about as fast as I can handle in an 11 foot boat.

BTW Ron, that is Danny, my son, and he is sticking his tongue out at his mom who took the picture.

Hopefully my daughter will get a ride soon as she was away at a friends house when we took the boat to the pond for the first ride.

thanks guys, I will get some fish in it soon enough.

My bad, Bruce... and my apologies to Danny. I knew you had a daughter, so I assumed... and we all know where that usually gets you.
