Sheeeeit, if post a picture of my fishing hunting boat you guys would laugh.
We named it this weekend...The Floating Circus. 1860 Lowe Roughneck

Dman, were you camping at Ft. Spokane Saturday and Sunday? If not there was an exact replica of your boat camped close to ours.

[PolarBear]

Here is a couple of mine.  We also have a 34' Tollycraft Tri-Cabin and a couple of smaller boats that are great for ponds and little lakes.
This is my bass/gotta git there fast boat.


This is my work/fish/crabbin/beat the crap out of it/whatever boat.  The kids call it the "Big Ugly"!

[Dman]

 Sisu, laughs, no it wasn't me, though that model and color are the most popular. I wish I had a picture of my first boat from about 4 years ago, it was a 14' skiff that we patched up with fiberglass resin. I actually ran it up to Sekiu, though I realize how nuts that was now.

 Bear, which boat will you be crabbin with on the opener?

[PolarBear]

Dman, I dont know yet.  It all depends on my mood and whether I am going to troll for salmon as well.  I have a new 4 stroke 8hp Yamaha kicker for the work boat and it fishes a lot better than the Skeeter in the sound.  I took the fugly to Neah Bay right after I put it together many moons ago and actually took it out past Tatoosh for lings.  It worked ok until the tide changed and we were all of a sudden in monster swells.  My next boat is going to be more like yours!!!  I need a good all around aluminum fishin' machine!  How do you like it?

my bluewater...slowly becoming a fishing boat....

I also have a 16' lavro driftboat, but no pic's handy here.

 I love our boat, things I like about it are; 8'x 21/2' flooded fish box, Suspension seats (must have), heater, ample storage, bow access door, built in rod holders, trim tabs, engine blower, I could go on, but it's a great boat. I always have two foot itis, the only thing I would change is an upgrade to the 24' model in a few years. I really do like the inboards, never have to worry about a dinged prop and very little maintenance. Shallow water launching capability let's you launch in 16" of water, even with a 23/24'. If you you do go out and start looking, ask about a full hard top, right now we have the 1/2 and it's more maintenance, the next one will have an Alaska bulkhead for sure.

my buddy's new 19' stryker, complete with spey rods on the skagit.

[Muleyslyr]

Here's my 20' Intruder.  Got it at the end of last summer.  Really the only picture I got of it so far.  I think this was right before I took it out for the first time.  In my opinion, the ultimate family boat.  Tow my kids on tubes in the summer, keeps them happy, steelhead fish the rivers in the winter and summer, Sound, whatever.



Here's my other one.  Though I only use it to haul meat and antlers. 

[Muleyslyr]

Did this work??  I know it's just picture in my driveway you all get the idea right?

[jackelope]

yup...that worked. but now the original one is there too.
nice boat. one of these days

[Ironhead]

Here is a pic of my favorite boat also have a 19' stryker with a sportjet. Nice Skeeter P-Bear I had the same boat with the same motor built by Nixon marine.

[PolarBear]

Thanks!  It was put together at Nixon's.  I can still see the shadow of the Nixon's stickers on the motor cowling.
