Well, I did it

I took the plunge, this had nothing to to do with Bunker fever, but a lifetime dream for me. I've been around boats all my life. My Dad and I had 3 while I was growing up, but this is the first one thats mine.

I want to thank Parker23 for his advice, guidance, fishing expertise and guiding on the bay.
Striperman36, RIRockhound, and especially Zacs for their boating advice over the last few seasons. I'll pick her up in a few weeks and get her in the water. I need to figure out how I am going to tow her from Peabody MA to Wickford RI.
I am looking forward to lots of fish, lots of laughs and lots of memories with my family.

2004 Hydra-Sport 212CC - 20ft, 150 evinrude. I'll be spending a lot of time in the boating forum from now on!

you can tell Raven never met me, the wind may blow, but not through any hair on my head!

Thanks for all the well wishes, looking forward to getting her wet and bloody

25 hours and a warranty to 2013 on engine. That is a huge no brainer. Happy for ya dude.
Now you can't make fun of me when my pogie dies. At least my pogie knows how to sit and stay, while yours keeps running around causing trouble.
Please tell the story about lucky the eel.
