BOATS, BOATS, AND MORE BOATS

[Coasthunterjay]

Alright you got it....summer is comming and i know im not the only one thinking about getting a boat....stealhead, salmon, trout, bass, whatever!
Im thinking of maybe getting a nice 19ft jetsled....?

show off or tell off your fish slaying chariot and tell us why its a good boat....

more pictures the better......

and all you with the smaller or less expensive boats can show off to....nothing to be embarressed about...you still catching fish just like the rest of those wine taste drinking boats(aka expensive boats), lol.........

SO LETS SEE THEM!!!!!!

[Antlershed]

20' North River Sportster with the 240 HP Sportjet. Have ran stuff as small as the Satsop and have had it 14 miles out of Westport.

[huntnphool]

21'6" NorthRiver CommanderX, 6.0L, Hami 212
Both boat and trailer polished by hand to a mirror finish

and somebody said realestate was a better investment than a boat.

Here is Idabooner and his craft.  Anybigger though and it wouldn't be a "Portaboat".  Throwing one of those North Rivers over your shuld could be hazardous to your health.

Nice tub Antlershed, Ive had mine in as little as "NO" water
and also 80 miles up the inside passage to Rivers Inlet. Theres nothing like doing 50mph+ in less than 4" or river water though

[boneaddict]

Dude, thats what 4 wheelers are for.
I wish I took a picture of the boat I saw at tehsportsman show that I wanted.  You'll see why I want to upgrade.
Coasthunter said no size restrictions, so here is my boat.  Its the biggest I've got now since I sold my 16 foot bayliner.   I have caught a few fish out of it though.

I have (sorry me and my wife have) a 2004 north river commander 21 ft. I thought it was a pretty nice boat until i saw huntnphool's, mine only has the 5.7 liter and its not polished to a mirror finish. I bought it from a friend about 8 months ago and have salmon fished with it in the puget sound and took it on a trip to the san juans and thats about it. I know the thing is made for running rivers and i've done it a few times with the previous owner but my balls have'nt got big enough yet to give that a try. Heading to rufus woods this weekend so maybe i can fill the cooler with monster trout

[huntnphool]

Very nice as well Skinzner, I like the lime graphics. Anytime you want to learn the river running just give me a shout, we can take yours or mine or both, and anyone else that just wants to go for a ride

[skinzner]

I might have to take you up on that one of these days

[popeshawnpaul]

Count me in phool.  I'll just sit in the corner, drink beers and take pictures...

[PolarBear]

The 80 mph bass killer

My work/oyster/crabbin/cutthroat catchin'/beat the hell out of bay boat.

Got a couple others but one is too big to fish for anything but bottomfish and the other is the tender to the other.
If I wasnt building a house, I'd be getting a good sled.  Maybe in 2010?

[boneaddict]

Yeah, show off.  We need a thread for Polar bears boats alone.

[quacker whacker]

Nothin fancy, super stable and can launch in some pretty shallow water.

[PolarBear]

Hey now Bone!    I cant help if I'm a boat whore!  I need 2 more fishing boats for salmon.  The wife wants to sell the farm when the kids are done with school and buy a big boat to live on.  Sounds good to me, but I dont know if I can give up my cows and shooting coyotes from my barn.  I guess that I could switch to shooting seals, eh?
