I'm with MJ on the Osprey Boats. I'd probably opt for this one though and have lots left over for other stuff. That's the 22' center console cabin model.

It has enough room for the fishing I do. I already have a 20 ft
Hyhra-Sport and love it. Just like this one.

Link that boat was designed for family 1st and fishing 2nd it is not like my 2450 walk. Did you become a salesman for Trophy? I think you need to get on some other boats my 24' has twice as much fish room as the 25 Trophy walk does

"Next Boat"

The fishing deck on my present boat is 8'6" X 8'6". Thats the number one reason I got the Hydra-Sport. It had the most room
deckwise, than all the others I looked at. Don't get me wrong, I
am very happy with my boat. The only thing, I would like more
cabin roon. So I can stay aboard the boat on weekends. I have
put shore power aboard, I have electric heat, and even a 5" TV.
Its got a port-a-party, and even an 8'6" X 8'6" colapsable bimmini
to cover the rear deck.

I'll Play

If I had 100,000 lying around I would by this boat:

and then take the extra 40K and by an F350 to pull it with.

Not saying I wouldn't slip it, because I would, but the F350 and trailer would be convenient. Also, I just want a big truck regardless.

30K to buy a boat and 70K to rent the PENN Catalog girl's to cruise around for a day.

That's a nice rig at a nice price! That one won't last long. My wife would love to have a cabin to get in outta the crap; fog, rain, spray....

Talking

Take a 100 grand, put it into a relative value trade on the stock market.

Then buy a 40 foot Cabo.

And then sell it the week afterwards for half of what I paid for it, after I find out I can't afford the gas bill.
