Miami Show & RockSalt 34 was awesome! But I don't have any pictures :( Rocksalt had a huge fish holder up front with a electric hydraulic arm that lifted it up for storage underneath. The head and sink area under the center console was large enough to walk around in without hitting your head. Fr...

Thanks for the great info! Last time I went I did not spend the night and the day was just too long with all the driving.

Were is the best, most convenient place to stay at the show? The less expensive the better.
Any recommendations? Thanks.

Thanks for all the comments on my Dodge cummins truck! I took it to the Dodge dealer this week (local dealership - they treated me good) and they changed my oil, fuel filter, flushed/serviced the transmission, flushed/service the rear axle, and checked everything out for me. So far everything is in ...

Bought a Dodge Cummins Diesel truck last Saturday to pull my boat - found on Craigslist for $3500.00. I've never owned a Dodge or a diesel before but I hear they pull good. It has been owned for the last 10 years by a senior couple who had it serviced regularily. The husband passed away and his wife...

I'm planning to come to Miami to see this boat!

I have been looking for a good manual Edson bilge pump for my boat - one that pumps a gallon per stroke. This is a little more than I need - but I couldn't resist a good deal. I picked up this Edson electric 2" inlet/outlet bilge/dewatering pump on Ebay this weekend for $102.50. This pump retai...

The boats really sit up nice and high in the water with the outboards up high. I like that:

Here is the same boat that was bought at auction for about 17K and selling for 32K: http://www.triplecmarine.com/25%20commander.html New Jersey State Marine Police must be upgrading their fleet. Here is where they are coming from. They have 12 of them in current fleet: http://www.state.nj.us/lps/njs...

The boat looks nice, are the inflatables solid or air filled or a combination of both? I know that aftermarket inflatables are available for the SeaArk & other RIBS here: http://www.wing.com/products.htm You may want to see if those things on Safeboats are serviceable. I have my eye out for a Se...

Anyone need parts? Some of these look like new from the outside.

Found the info on C Raymond Hunt designs: http://www.crhunt.com/ Their info page on the design of SeaArk boats: http://www.huntdesigns.com/comm_govt_safety.htm http://www.huntdesigns.com/comm_govt_security.htm "SeaArk Marine of Monticello, Arkansas builds a complete line of Hunt-designed alumin...

MonArk & SeaArk Bow design: The MonArk bow looks a little broader based than the SeaArk bow. I tried to take the MonArk picture from the same angle and distance as the SeaArk but I think I am a few feet further away. The SeaArk also looks like it has 3 chimes compared to the Monarks one. I have ...

WOW, I really like your boat! It looks like new. I think you made a great choice to haul it to Ark! Thanks for posting the pictures! The hull design in the bow looks like it has been upgraded a little from when mine was made. I think out boats look a lot a like, especially from that picture you that...

I have been trying to figure out what a pawn or prawn is. Thanks for the picture. In Florida we call those shrimp! :D Never heard of a prawn before. I guess I was thinking they were some kind of sardine fish. Shows my lack of education. In Florida the water is shallow but the shrimp can get nice siz...

Here is a 18' Munson, probably great back bay boat, needs a hole patched & motor de-watered.

I found this thread! I like your boat. Maybe I need to save my $ and haul mine to Ark. for a re-do! That is an awesome radar/light arch on top of your cabin. Mine is missing, but the mounting bracket is there. Please post some more pictures of your boat if you get the chance. http://i39.photobucket....

Wow, I would enjoy learning more about your boat and what SeaArk told you. I have called SeaArk and talked to a guy named Ronnie in the engineering dept. He was supposed to send me some test reports and other stuff similiar to boats like mine but he never did. He was very helpful on the phone but ne...

JETTYWOLF,

The crabs are much LARGER in Tampa Bay than they are in Jax.
Ever seen a 3' long shrimp? :D

Thanks. I would not have guessed the mast & boom were fir.

Maybe someone enjoys looking at whats out there for sale.....

These sell on ebay every once in a while. They are built like a tank but are very heavy with the big diesel engine. This one is in serious need of a paint job. Seller is State of Oregon http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Aluminum-19-Monark-Boat-Trailer-Salem-Oregon_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trkparmsZ72Q3a1163Q...

Chaps, I really like your crane. Did you build your swivel base from scratch or use one made for this purpose? I've searched the net for hardware, plans, & more info on setups like yours but have not been able to find much. My boat has a mount for a towpost that goes through the deck and is moun...
