New Boat
« on: October 23, 2013, 05:00:58 PM »
Picked up a new Hewescraft last weekend.  Now to get it outfitted.  It's a 16 ft.  70hp and an 8hp.  Both motors are 4 strokes.

No problem.  Been looking for a used one for a while and found this new 2012 and got a good price.  + Yamaha was offering a 6 year warranty instead of the usual 3 at no extra charge.  Now for the downrigger, fish finder etc.

No wife on my end.  The only one I needed to talk into buying it was myself.  That turned out to be easier than I thought.

Nice boat. My buddy is the shipping boss at Hewescraft. He says those boats are the best on the market with the best warranty out there.

My buddy over there had one of their lead welders fab an offshore bracket and a bow picker guide for his commercial boat.  It was some of the prettiest welds I have ever seen.  Those guys do awesome metal work and welding!

You know what PolarBear, they make 100 + - boats a month there, during the high season. I couldn't believe it when my buddy told me. You've most likely seen the plant and how small it looks.

I haven't been to the plant but my buddy wants to take me though it.  I helped him build the rest of his boat.  Maybe if I get over there for late archery this year or for shed hunting in February.
