Greetings just joined and wanted to say hello. just bought a 92 overnighter, my first Grady ,haven't had a chance to put it in the water here in Somerset Ma yet.
Doing the things to make it really mine, lol.
Just sold my cabin in Maine after 15 yrs and figured i would join the fishing crowd. Don't know how long i will be at it cause I'm 74 but i plan on enjoying it while

Welcome to the site.

Dennis, I try and look at age as just a number. Being on the water has a therapeutic value. I wish you many years of enjoyment and I can only hope I'm still on the water at your age when I get there.

The club pages aren't as active as the main pages up above. A lot of great members willing to help, post up questions that may come up and I'm sure someone will chime in.

I just bought a Overnighter myself. Wanted something to fish with. My first Grady. Has a 200 hp Yamaha for power. Fish Long Island sound . I have another boat but the wife doesn't like to fish, so she either goes or is left on shore. You get my point. And by the way I'm 76. Bought my first boat in 1980 and have been boating ever since.
