Re: Hull Floatation

I have been told that many commercial boats fill their below deck voids with empty soda and water bottles with the caps screwed back on to create cheap and functional flotation. I would like to hear any thoughts on that subject. How many empty gallon jugs would you need to compensate for the weight ...

Re: Cool 30' on eBay

Nice, kind of a tough sell as it looks to have no berth area but huge cabin and huge cockpit makes for a nice day boat I think it does have a berth. Look at the helm picture...there is a step down on the port side. They more and need bigger pictures. I always wonder why a boat this new is up for sa...

There is a guy in Ohio with a 20 that is only a couple years old. Ask Jay. The boat had a port side door.

Re: Hull Floatation

My pacific 23 was custom built and has no flotation. I am the second owner and would have not built it that way, but now I like it without foam. A little noisier , but also a little lighter and faster and I have tons of storage space below deck. Less safe? Only in a sudden capsize and I carry a raft...

Re: Where are all the West Coast reports?

I went out for some local bass and bottom feeders last week and got lots. Kept these few and tossed the others back to the sea.

Re: Newest Koffler Build Pics Coming @ You!!!

Looks tough as nails! I like the idea of the gas up front to keep the bow down. I also like the removable tanks. I wish that my crestliner didn't have a built in tank so I could just pull the tanks out up and bring them to the sunoco. That boat is GREAT!!! I would love it for coastal fishing and lob...

No...I do remember that boat. It is a beaut and very capable in a days range. I am surprised it is for sale to upgrade so soon. I would like a bigger boat too...but to make a lifestyle/fish style difference I need to go way bigger to an Armstrong, Coldwater, NDI, Rocksalt, or Bevan DownUnder AMF Kic...

This is the same boat that was listed here. Great boat, just wanting something bigger. Boat is ready to go ! Just needs a new owner.

I was thinking the same thing, SB. I will say that it would be the only plastic boat that I would ever consider. Way out of my price range, though.
