Re: REDNECK YACHT CLUB with the "Act II"

Jettywolf, that video was hilarious, almost wet myself laughing. The guys trying to break the surf have a real death wish, guy on the bow was lucky to have stayed in boat. Think I'll have a beer in their honor.

Re: Rock Salt 26' Pilothouse - Thoughts?

Hey Jay, I'm not sure why but I'd like to have machine guns on my Pacific 23. Coasties and homeland probably wouldn't approve but what the hell!

I think I need to catch a fish or two to end fishing withdrawal symptoms. If anyone goes now it would be like going into space, have to go get out t...

Re: Hi from Vancouver, BC

Hey Steve, I have a Pacific 23 with a 175 Zuk on it. I got it last year and so far I love it. Very low maintenance and rugged , one solid boat. I put trim tabs on it as some of my pals are big folk and rather than constantly asking them to move over so I can run flat I just hit the trim. We run acro...

Re: New Member

Hey relentless,
Welcome to the group,I'm a new member myself and when spring comes around I'd be happy to let you take the helm and put a 23 pacific with a 175 Zuk through the paces. Of course we will have to fish.These boats are like tanks. You would have to do something really crazy to hurt it.

Re: winter storage

Hey Nuke, isn't not covering our boats one of the reason we got them in the first place? What the hell sense does it make to buy a tank and go and cover it with some plastic. Cover or fill the holes and let mother nature keep the critters out.

Thanks for the warm welcome from AAB. Seems to be quite a few of us in the New England area. Maybe some time next year we could have an Alloy boat rally like the car people do. I know it would mean a day off from fishing but time with the family is fun too. Any idea's? Clambo
