that's the king of the sand bar queens ! Straight up I would take that boat in a heart beat if I had coin to buy one. Maybe in 20 years I can pick a used one up for a few hundred Gs . . my guy says there has to be cabin space under that deck.

I have fished 4-6 in the Keys before and trolling with some water coming over the bow sometimes .lol. In the Bahamas off of Abacos and it was blowing in June. we fished in some big swells where when I was in the trough my hardtop was below the top of the next wave. they were ocean swells...

There is a decent probability you will be replacing the fuel tanks. The aluminum tanks do oxidize and wear thin with holes over time . Enjoy the project ..Sometimes working on the boat is the best time I spend and sometimes it's frustrating. lol.

Enjoy it brother. Have a grand adventure. All I know about Thailand is from the Hangover II movie. lol. Maybe ask Allan if wants to go with you? lol. I don't know about the rest of you guys, but Lee send pictures here every now and again. it looks like a beautiful place . also, here is to...

congrats! Enjoy every moment of it.

on the other are you saying I can get bovine penile sheath and have a transplant? You know I could get into the adult film entertaining industry with an implant! brown chicken brown cow! do a few films and bam, I am getting a Marlin or maybe Express 330!

wonderful news! Congrats on the new valve! Here is to a speedy recovery!!! if you start mooing or growing udders you might want to ask Mayo for a primate valve replacement or maybe a frog? Can't wait to see you fishing pictures in October!

I love my 228 and I would love to be able to buy a NEW Sailfish or Marlin. There are a number of 228s cruising around Key Largo. I see a number of walks there. Maybe there will be a resurgence of the walk around. Part of Grady's problem is they built a great 22 footer that I bought new and I...

Yeah, we had 11 people in the Keys and 9 got it. I was doing pretty well but when I got back to NC my doctor was concerned about pneumonia. Sure enough. I spent 10 days in Mission in Asheville. They were great . I am home recovering,still on oxygen . I am hoping to not need it within the...

Sending prayers your way.

Hi Crazy, I went on vacation to the Florida Keys at the beginning of August. All I got was a t shirt and the entire family got Covid. I spent 10 days in the hospital.. I had 5 rounds of remdemsivere and 14 days of steroids. I laid prone for 7 days straight. I am home now, day 5. Hang in there...

I am a Key Largo myself . I like the reefs here for snorkeling and I still can run to the Islamorada Humps too with relative ease .

Love me some new boat VOCs!!! Congrats on the boat. I am in the Florida Keys with my 228. Great Keys boat of you ask me. I see many here. You will love the boat.

When it comes to boats 24 feet or less in my opinion Grady makes /made some of the best out there. I had a 192 and I think that was the best 19 foot boat on the water. I am biased but I think the seafarer is one of the best 22 footers on the water too. They are one of the few builders to build...

Um, I love the bracket and full width swim platform and fully enclosed stern/transom. everyone has an opinion I suppose of what an improvement is on the boat. lol. To the OP you can pull the live well and see the other side of the transom and feel around there if you are concerned about the...

Well, you're name after all is luckydude . We all make mistakes brother . it's great to hear it's not that bad. .

That will buff out. no problem ....

awesome trip. In my business I get people all the freakn time tell me how great the fudge is at Mackinaw Island ,blah blah blah . lol. You are an outlaw ,breaking into Canada ,evading their gun boats and sales clerks at the gift shops . I am impressed. Question, did you play the Wreck of...

Do you have a windlass ? if no, what kind of anchor or style do you use? the rode or chain section of the rode should be at about half your boat length or more. Chain helps keep the anchor down and the force parallel to the bottom to help set the anchor. I bought an aluminum fortress anchor...

I count myself fortunate. I am getting ready to go back to the Keys for a 2 Week adventure next week. I went back and forth on ordering my trailer with one or two spares. I ordered with one then decided to get a second. Called Owens and voila it appeared like magic . Now I have two spares and...
