Show off your Boat.

Launched in the rain but turned nice by sunset.

Gotta be PNW? We don't see boats like that on the East Coast very much. At least not in the South

Yes sir, I'm out of Oregon and run it primarily in the Columbia river for salmon.

Anyone else into boats? I picked up this J16 last weekend with a basically new Merc 40 CT (21 hours) for $5K. Needs some minor fiberglass repair but I can take care of that myself. I also ordered a Minn Kota Riptide Terrova 55#. Pretty excited about that, I-Pilot is supposed to be amazing.

I have that same trolling motor on my 16' Santee and it has been a game changer. Spot lock keeps me stationary despite any wind or current. Plus being able to hit the creeks quietly and not scare the fish.

That's awesome. I've lived in NC my whole life but spent summers as a kid fishing the Columbia. I have family that lives in The Dalles.

Funny story, Cabelas actually sent me the 112# instead of the 55# I ordered. So I could damn near ski being that 16" skiff. But it's coming off and going on the Grady White this weekend.

Are you winterizing? I’m on the lake year-round in Charlotte

No. That’s one thing I love about the Yamaha. No need to winterize. But when the water cools the kids don’t care to go if they can’t board and tube… So I’ll go out a handful of time this fall and winter when the weather is nice! Also we spent a week at lake Norman for summer vacation this year and it was awesome. Been eyeing houses there and also lake Gaston.

Gaston is probably cheaper and closer for you. I grew up in Wake Forest so we went to Gaston a lot. I live on Wylie now so it’s as simple as pushing the switch on the lift when we get a nice day in February

Pulled the Poon Toon out this weekend for annual service and deep clean. Weather is starting to warm up here, ready for Spring.
