Default Boat Shows

Phew! Then there's hope for me. I recently bought a 9' Pond Prowler. I
refer to it as my 36' fishing boat--that's square feet. Even then, that
might be a stretch. I don't think it is quite 4' wide. Maybe in 5 years
I'll be up to the jon boat. How long from there to the Champion?


When my wife first met me, back in 1994, I had a 14' rowboat with a 1963
Johnson outboard (believe it or not, I guided out of that boat!), with
home-made platforms and a cooler for a livewell. Top speed, 14 mph.

I upgraded to a 16' aluminum boat, still with home-made decks and a cooler
livewell, but this one had console steering and a 40 hp Mariner.

I sold that, bought a 17' Tuffy Bassin' Marauder with a 75 hp Force
outboard, now with factory decks and a real livewell.

I sold that boat, bought a 19' ProCraft SuperPro 190 with a 175 hp Merc EFI
and two years ago traded that in on my current boat, a 21'6" Cobra Coosa
with a Merc 250XB high performance outboard. Top speed, 81.6 mph.

My wife is afraid of what I'm going to come home with next.....
