Yep, another new boat....

[crash14me2]

Think I will keep this one for awhile! Took it out for a shakedown Saturday with the family. Put in at Osbourne ran to Richmond down to Jordan Point (got some grub) then headed back to Osbourne. Only used 1/16 of a tank. Needle bairly moved. Very happy with the mercury optimax motor. Wife says she will go more often now that she has somewhere to lay and stay warm with the curtains. Is that a good thing?[wink]

Way to go Wayne, that's a cool looking boat. What HP? 2 or 4 stroke?

It is a 06' Trophy Pro 2002 walkaround. It is actually 21' 7" Rides very nice. Has a 2 stroke 135 Mercury Optimax motor and a 86 gallon tank.
Runs very nice and quiet. Cant wait to hit the bay![grin]

Crash, I guess you gave up on the racing thing? I did years ago. Sold the race car for a boat. Not sure which one I spent the most money on at any one time but one thing was for sure I could not afford both at the same time.

Wow! Brandon better start lifting weights so he can pull the big cats up over the sides of that thing! Looking forward to your first post with some flounder spread across the bow...

We are on a very selective schedule this year. Basically we will just be practicing. We are working with a few people to put together a full season for 2007 on the road race bikes. Brandon has to be 10 to do the road race thing which he will not be till october of this year. After this year we will drop the dirt track racing and go full blown road racing. Doing both is tough is if not impossible, thats why we will spend this year putting a program together for next year and hopefully we will have a decent sponsor backing us. I personally think the fishing is much safer but its hard to tell him that! Wasabi you can bet on them Flounder's! You are welcome to go with us just send me a B-mail.

Nice boat Wayne! Get some slime on her![grin]

[Here We Go]

Hope you didn't chip the gel coat with that bottle of Champange[grin]

You are good to go Wayne, ought to be able to go just about anywhere you want.

Nice looking rig.

[catchone]

I was thinking, if you named her "CRASH 1" I wonder if other boaters would give you a little more room around the landing and on the water. Food for thought.

Try to keep it clean and looking new for our first flounder post![excited]

Crash,
Were you on the James today? Saw a boat that looked like yours.

[wasabi]

Crash, I saw this topic and thought maybe you had bought another boat this weekend! [grin]

Yep that was probably me, we put in at Osbourne and went up river looking for some shad and rock fish. We didnt find any, but I did finish putting the break in time on the motor. Wasabi I believe im gonna hang on to this on for awhile! If I throw the " I need another boat" thing to my wife she might not go for it again![grin]

Sweeeeeeeet

[rickrider]

Hey bubba, I'm glad to see you got her out and broke in, at least running wise. Now you need to get some slime on her. If I get out on that one, it might get me itching. My wife just might agree with yours.

[bigcatdaddy]

Now that's what I call a Christmas present!!!!!! Nice Ride!
