it is not exactly fresh news, but Evinrude recently announced the second generation of ETEC outboards. It is just the big ones for now--200 to 300hp. I would speculate that eventually the entire line will shift to Gen 2, unless the public rejects the Buck Rogers styling of the gen 2's. :-) http://ww...

instead of polishing it out, the other option is to scuff up the other side so they match! :-)

I think Welder Bob said the owner/client was a commercial shellfish diver--so it may not have many fishing amenities.

Hey Reelsong. How about an update? have you been working on the new build?

Boy, that is a lot of stuff~!

Wow. She is gonna be a big girl! Can't wait for more pics.
Mike

Nice work Welder Bob! Thanks for sharing and looking forward to in-water pics too.
Mike

Can't wait to see the pics.

sorry to hear about your troubles Dave. Hopefully you will have more luck with the zukie.
Mike

Wow. The price just dropped to $99.5k

it looks like the boat tipped over because it took too long to get into deep enough water to take advantage of the ballast. But, who knows. that really is a bummer and will be terrible for the future of the company. who would buy a boat from them now?

Hey Capt. Dave!
I think we are going to have to take up a collection to get you a bigger net!

Does that mean I get the prize for best alloy boat porn of the week? :-)

Yes, the price seems good and it is a bad BACK SIDE boat!

This looks like a decent price for what you get.

Good for you Dave. I'm sure your Mama is proud! You got her some nice red fish for mothers day.

I've seen that beast for sale last year. It might be handy for transporting stuff between Islands in Alaska. I bet it would be fun to drive with those dual stick controls!
Mike

she cleaned up well! thanks for sharing the rest of the story. Are you fishing her this season? what kind of speed and fuel burn numbers are you seeing with the jet pump?

Cheers,
Mike

Well I put a brand new 2014 250zuke and and it don't feel like no fluke!! Just breaking that bad boy in and can't wait to open it up!! :titanic: When you have time can you post up a picture or two of said SUKI-ZILLA and some numbers to go along with it, we got to know. :mrgreen: What he said! We go...

did you see this 26 for sale on the Munson web page? It is pricey, but it seems to be just what you are looking for.

I did a few searches and did not find anything.

By the way, streaking aside, that is a great looking Boat Tony.

While this thread has been running my boat has been with North River undergoing some minor warranty work and additions. I asked if they would do an acid wash for me but NR were not keen advising that they had tried this in the past but were not impressed with the results which were often streaky. T...

I think 500 HP seems like a lot to folks who don't worship and study boats on the internet. :-)

She looks sweet! I like the red/orange accent stripe too.
