Bill, I made the call today to start the wheel in motion to sell the riverhawk! You really suck, you know that don't you?  :-*

Cosmic universe. This morning I called Clark's marine to get some numbers together on a 15ft aluminum boat.  I went and looked at the 14 but it's just too short.

Then I was looking at this one on the internet
http://www.seaarkboats.com/boat.php?measure=Standard&boat=1652MVJT

Then the phone rang and I've been ruint for the rest of the day.

Yesterday, I was at the bottom. I was at the bottom of a valley, in the river. Then my eyes hiked up the mountains to the snow capped peaks. I thought, "When I am at this lowest place I can be, standing in a river, everything is looking up."

 That is a sharp boat !!! Man I hate when I see something I like better than what I have .thanks Ron >:(  what I like better is the weight,the thing it dont have is a rear casting deck . The boat is very nice how much is it rigged out with everything and a 60/40 jet?  I think I would see if you could put the batteries up front on that boat to get some weight forward to balance the boat out

BandDad-Yeah, I saw them. Hurts my eyes. Makes them cry.

Bill-I have no idea how much they are. I like the looks of that Lowe you posted. It's got a great rear deck. What's wrong with that?? I'm sure they are more than I have to spend, once you get the right size jet on that back end.  :'(

Oh well.  Mike, give me a call today. 591-8400 store. Deb wants to see the Riverhawk.

Grumpy I'm counting all my chickens and eggs and I might be headed to Mt Home and getting the wide Supreme with a 30 Yamaha Four stroke JET.  :o

The Hawk and the Lowe are both on the market.

BTW, it's all your and Bills fault. ;D

I know how it is gota point a finger at someone but I cant take full blame . I like both the boats you have now .I said you should pick one and put a jet on it not sell them and get a new one .ITt must be more Grumpy's fault because i said nothing about a supreme!

Mike
give me a shout on the Hawk if your chickens hatch, i'll check my dogs, parrots, ducks, cats, horses & kids & see if i have anything :o
I'd opt for a 2 stroke in the 30 though, more noise equals more UMMPPPHHHHHHHHHH!

Do you think a 25 Merc Jet would do the trick?? What kind of speed will I get out of it? I know where one is farily cheap.

I'd opt for a bigger one Mike, that boat weighs 100 lbs or more than the one i had i believe, you'll need the extra engine.
If you look at it from the technical standpoint, that stroker(25) will have give as much as a 30 4 stroke though.
Seriously, if ya come up with a price on the Hawk, let me know.

Well RonS has first shot at it guys but I am asking $5500 for it just the way it is except the trolling motor will not have the remote. I need the remote for my Stratos so I'll be taking it off and putting the foot control back on it. The co-pilot can be purchased for this motor at BPS for $149.

After doing the math I have a little over $6000 + tax invested. It has a few scratches and a couple dings on the prop and that’s it! Otherwise it is a brand new boat and motor ready for a trip right now! I think anybody who wants to fish the Caney would LOVE this rig.

This all started with a Supreme Boat I tried to buy from this <<<<<<<<<<<<<AHOLE>>>>>>>>>>>>> who sold it out from under me after I committed to buy it and had the funds transferred to my checking account (cost me $300). If you are that guy and you read this, YOU CAN    :-* my  :-X :-X :-X  :o      ;)

So, now I am going to do what I set out to do in the first place, I am buying a Supreme with a Jet. I don't think Chris N would even argue with me on this one.

BTW the Yamaha is a 40/30 so rather then having +-20hp I'll have +-30 at the foot. God Help the Gravel Bars!!!!
