My first boat...
Well I just bought my first rig for $1500 bucks. Its got a bunch of cool features that come with it. Its 16', the cooler livewell is HUGE, 2 Eagle 320 fishfinders are AWESOME, Bow mount MG 46lb thrust and the Transom mount MK 46lb thrust is SWEET (bigfoot switch in the front to turn on the back TM!), ancor system is really COOL, and many other things that just make the boat a perfect first boat. The guy that I got it from also thru in an OLD 18HP Evinrude and he said didnt work to well but I got it running the first day I had it. I cant wait to get it out on the water

Got the 18hp for free....sweet deal. So explain why the video shows a 9.9 sticker on the motor!!! Might want to keep that deal quiet if you are fishing small water tournes.
Make sure the bass don't get a running start in that livewell or else they'll be swimming away with your markers/tags. |
