/daytripper (thinking about a bigger salt water boat again...)


me too... a 17' bay boat is great for flats and sound fishing, but
sal****er baths offshore are a bit testy. what have you been looking at?


We've definitely outgrown our 18' bow-rider, there's a whole world beyond its
limits. Even the SO has been pushing for a bigger boat, so I got that going
for me :-)

I've been looking at 23'-25' center consoles, large enough to have a head in
the console - a "gotta have" feature for spousal unit buy-in :-) but small
enough to trailer. Whatever it turns out to be it'll have a 200-225hp Yamaha
60° v6.

On the short list if new: Scout 235 Sportfish, SeaPro 238 CC, Genmar Fishhawk
213 CC and 233 CC. I would enjoy any of them. But if a great used deal falls
out of the sky towards the end of the summer I might spring for that...
