New Boat

Post by red_yakker »

Ok, so I've owned the boat for over a month now, but I haven't had a chance to take pictures, and I didn't want to post anything until I had pictures. It's a Riverhawk B-60 Boating Atlanta Special. 15'2" long with a 60" (that's right, I said 60") beam. That's a 20 HP Honda four stroke on the back. It'll do 25 mph with 2 people and a full ice chest. It's incredibly stable and has a very smooth dry ride for such a small boat. I've been fishing and scalloping out of it several times, and am loving it so far.

I got it up in Atlanta from a dealership called Boating Atlanta (they're located close to the Riverhawk factory, so they have great deals and are able to work with the factory to customize the boat to your needs). They were very helpful and gave me great deal! Check them out! www.boatingatlanta.com

That'll be a great boat for winter redfishing.

I saw a few like that at Parkway Marine and they looked like good boats. Let us know how it does.

That's at my Mom and Dad's house, but yeah, I'm a hay farmer.
