This if my 19 footer (bought new in 2012). I see they quit making this model. That's too bad, it's a nice boat!

Thanks Chaps; here's a few pictures from our Perch trip this past weekend on Lake Erie. I also use my boat on Lake Huron.

I'll bet that's an unusual boat to see in that part of the country . . .

You're right Chaps; manufacturer's such as Lund predominate in my neck of the woods. I've gotten some positive reviews at the boat ramp. It does garner some attention. If only it was from pretty girls.....

The pretty girls like the sunshine of FL and the pastel plastic boats...but little do they know that real men have alloy boats!

And to think, I had one of those boats! Didn't have the Florida sun though......

Hey Marshall, how are you doing? Somehow I missed your post; getting old I guess. Actually, not many. Probably less than 50 hours. I had ACL Surgery last summer and family business has limited my time this year. Maybe next year. You getting out much on yours? I still have the photos you sent me when I was researching my boat. Thanks again for your help!

Doing well, did a bunch of little things to my Pacific and trailer got it all ready for early spring then got busy with work and everything else. Never used it this year, I syphoned all the gas out in April with plans of refilling on the first use which never happened.
I should sell it, but I like it too much and know I could never get another one, maybe next year...

As they've discontinued making this model, maybe that will make it that much more unique and valuable. Then you'll really want to keep it :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
