I am biased...and love my boat!

That big boaTing/wHinning/complaining/fighTing website was like a bad party full of drunk teenagers with silly string. Smart people know when it is time to leave.

... I love how the boat handles at slow speeds. This is the easiest single engine boat to dock that I have ever owned. Even in 20mph winds, the manuverability of this boat is fantastic. The boat does catch the wind, but the way it handles makes up for that. I was out on a harbor cruise last week and...

Here's a beauty at about a half a million bucks! I LOVE this boat!!!!!! http://www.yachtworld.com/core/listing/boatDetails.jsp?&units=Feet&currency=USD&ro=1&r=1348104&rs=yachtworld.com&rt=Catamaran&boat_id=1348104&checked_boats=1348104&Ntk=boatsEN&hmid=0&s...

I didn't get to fish yesterday :( My boat is in for routine engine service and is also getting a few new things installed.

TW may be closed on Mondays, but I may be wrong...call and check with them before you go down.

Calstabi, If the water is not circulating with fresh, the amonia and lack of O2 will kill them pretty fast. Do you have room for a bag off the transome? Cheap alternative for day trips and keeps all plumbing out of the boat. Also Kenny at Tradewinds has a guy that does beautiful f-glass tanks. I wou...

I think that there will be lot's of fish. Aquatic populations always seem to make amazing comebacks after just a couple of years of being left alone. $10 gas should thin out the crowds of sport fishermen. And will keep much of the commercial fleet (who have been feeding us for generations) at the do...

I hear you guys loud and clear. Lots of forces keeping me off the water this Spring. And still getting some little stuff in order on the boat. Pics will come soon. For one: The GPS in my new boat looks like the original. Not the "original" that came with the boat... the original, first GPS...

I picked up that book a few weeks ago myself. I haven't started it yet. Soon.

whoaaaaaa...

That's pretty cool!

WSB or White Sea bass.
I have not taken my new boat to the island yet (Catalina - 20+ miles out) ...but they were catching these big fish last weekend...lots of 'em. Fishing for them is hit and miss. But I will do my best to post a couple this year.

I never heard of AMF boats until Bevan became a member and now I am a big fan.

Welcome FishAK,

They look like great boats. On first glance at their site, I didn't see any details on alloy type or thickness used in the build.

That sport walkaround is an awesome design. And love those Freeman deck hatches.

Here is an interesting much newer 2003 Thomas cat for 60K. I know that it is more than double the price...just the only other Thomas I found for reference. http://www.yachtworld.com/core/listing/boatDetails.jsp?&units=Feet&currency=USD&ro=7&r=1509220&rs=yachtworld.com&rt=Cata...

I'd like to tell you 'bout my old hound dogs...but I will just comment on the boat. I bought a boat about 25 years ago that had sunk "only for a few days" . The problems that I had never seemed to end. Ofcourse it was a glass boat with wood stringers so much of my trouble would not be enco...

Train, Train...

Welcome aboard!

We have seen that boat in Orange, AL (not in person) ...it looks like a great deal.

Love to see some pics of your other choices.

The "Alloy Hull Repair Kit" is a beauty...it should be one of AAB's logos!

Congrats to your son. W&M Law is a great accomplishment from one of our nations oldest and most respected colleges.

Hi Matthew...welcome.
You can never post too many pictures on this site! I look forward to the pics of the boat re-condition. Awesome deal you guys got on that hull. Gongrats.

Hi Matt,

I don't know for sure, but with a boat that light the bracket might bring up the bow more than you want. We have a few Bayrunner owners here, I am sure that they will offer some more educated thoughts soon.

I do...but my bilge is wide open (no foam) and has a big 1" drain plug in the transom. I hose it down like everything else. A little "Salt-Away" then rinse with clean water.

If I ever get out that way, I will book two days then!

Amazing Dave. Those are really beautiful fish. You gotta spend at least a little time hunting tarpon on Thursday...I want to see a pic!
