I'm very interested in seeing "the Box" on the stern.....looks Livewell'ish to me.

You can just catch a glimse ofd it on that interior shot.

Where the heck is S.L. Dave?

This is just what he was looking for...

Man oh man, will ya look at the nice red piping along that seat, and those red coushions......holy begeezers!

And closed in Gunnel boxes too..that's a boat ready for any eskimo.

I'd also be interested in seeing the """NEW""" Aluminum deck plate/hatch and the size of the opening, versus the Armstrong Compression's.

-WHY THE SWITCH?

Can ya tell, I'm all about the details......baby!

Now that is a nice boat! How long is the rear deck? Also I see some type of box at the back of the cabin. Is that welded in place or is it something removable? I hope I can take a look at her at the Seattle boat show tommorow. That is just about the perfect boat for fishing up here in the Pacific North West.

bob,

they've done that before....its a seat/storage, and is part of the cab, I do believe.

Marysville, Wash. is where the factory is at.

Damn if I lived up yonder I'd have to spend more money!!

Jettywolf: you can get away with a center console up here if you only fish may-october, but you would be hard pressed to get customers to pay to go with you. I have fished a Center Console for the last 3 years and I love them. There is a small but very hardcore group of CC guys up here that I fish with. Most of them are running Pursuits and Whalers.

I can't get Floridians to go if it isn't 70 degrees!

Box in the back is a west coast, uninsulated fish box.

Wood? :shock:

I thought you'd like that.......

wood, as in "arousal"

Seneca Lake Dave (where the hell is he???)
coined the phrase on a forum that I no longer visit.
"Get Alloy, Get Wood"

Now Ya know what I mean?

BTW, Jay...what's this??

#18

I think that is a roll-up privacy screen for the cuddy. I was on this boat yesterday, very sweet rig. I took some pics of it at the show but they aren't really any different than what is already here.

#19

Chaps, trying to figure out if your feet will protrude beneath the floor when you lay on the berth? see the previous page and the little diagram I made.

#20

That's the official "Dan" papertowel holder cover for the entry into the berth.

Alloy - your feet do not go under the deck - the berth is 6'4" long and roomy!!!

Oh, damn I should have thought of that. Privacy curtin!!

That's pretty cool. So it rolls-up out the way.

Jay,

-WHY THE SWITCH???

#22

Jay,

Is it possible to have a Aft sliding/opening window? I'm thinkin Stellwagon, Hot Bite, Marine Radio, and not missing the call :D

Will you have one up North in the near future for viewing?

warthog5 · #23

For a boat that is going to a warm climate.

This type of window in the windshield would be needed.

When you open a window like this it will create a vortex thru the pilothouse to keep you cool.

This split style window would cut down on such a big opening.
[weight of the glass and strength in the opening]
I have seen some that just the bottom section opens.

Either one would still allow the windshied wiper motor to remain in it's present position.

I see a lot of new pilothouse being built today on the market that the manufacture thinks that small side vent windows will scoop enough air into the pilothouse. Nothing could be farther from the truth in the hot Florida sun on a no breeze day.
[Edgewater,McKee & Mako]

This is not a option. It's mandatory for where I'm at.

#24

I'm sure this could be done on the aft side of the pilot house

warthog5, how do these windows seal up in regards to downpours etc???

#25

Great stuff.

Movable windows (sliders, hinged, etc.) are always an option.

The boat below went to just outside Pensacola, FL w/o movable windows and the owner (not a THT or AAB participant) reports that he is very comfortable - surprisingly comfortable.

(Piture taken for a photo shoot - obviously not the Florida panhandle!)
