I'm always looking (though no plans to buy for the forseeable future). To feed my addiction - Scout just sent their latest newsletter - showcasing 4 new models - Also next year they're introducing a 35 Abaco (walkaround). As far as a wish list - I'd say the 260SF 260SF with twins looks pretty sweet.
Also - Congrats to Scott at Viking - Top 5 CSI (I think that's customer satisfaction) Dealer of the year! |

Ocean Scout Marine ~ 20 Narragansett w/ 90 or 140 suzuki
Or if I can wait a few more years with my sslllooowww 30hp 17 skiff I would love their 23 Bristol.
Anyone out there w/ an Ocean Scout boat?

Yeh - Scott is the real deal. He was blessed with boat and engine skills, not typing skills, otherwise he would likely particpate here more  (he is a sponsor, and a decent fellow as well).
Me, I'm just looking to get mine done.... |

Zac,
Those are some nice rigs, I should hire you as my agent and help me find a boat!
Actually, we are looking at an Osprey. There is a 28 with a single diesel and a new model this year 30' with twins. I hope to see one at the Boston show. I don't want an engine box in my cockpit esp against the transom. I know the 28 and 30 have a clear deck. Also I keep looking at the mirage 32. What do you have in a 48' trawler? (wifes first choise)
If I had the cash I would just get a Predator. I love the way that boat moves.

I had a 33 egg, nice comfortable boat but slow and a bit of a gas hog.
I went smaller now time to move back up a bit.
Zac,
Nice but I think I have to cap my fishing boat price at about 100-150K tops. Not 1.5 mil. If you have a mil to blow you can get a awesome rig. I dream about them all the time too...
oooh, its low tide here...gotta run and get my weekly scallop limit...bye |

That Pursuit is pretty much my dream boat, so to speak, except for that fact that it's OBs. A Rampage wouldn't be too shabby either. Perhaps an early nineties Wellcraft Coastal 28.I WILL get a new boat this offseason if everything goes according to plan (but does it ever?).

yeah we were looking at the bigger diesel inboards, but we decided that i dont have the patience to go that slow. (all the diesel inboards we could afford were too slow, and the fast ones, way way out of my price range).
i tried chasing a 40 ft cabo express in our mako...at WFO i was just barely gaining on him...i was doing 44 mph according to my gps. i think that boat goes for about 800k new.
so we stuck with outboards, which is what we know. so far it's fast enough. we often cruise at 4500 rpms which is 38 mph and 1.1 mpg.

Looks similar to a RoMarine Hull; wet and pound for sure, but a great work boat...

Isn't there a Ocean Scout 23' center console for sale at quaker lane? I think so. It has been there all summer long. Probably could get a good deal on it, but perhaps it has problems, which is why it is there. If you are interested in this brand it is worth a stop by anyway.
Looks like a nice center console.
