Nice barge. My uncle had one with a 50hp two stroke. Pushed it and 3 anglers fairly well. It had lots and lots of room.

What are the details? I'd at least like to put it on and run it.
A jet would be sweet if it pushes it well!

That's what my wife says! You know there is no perfect boat so one must have a small navy!

My wife wanted a boat with homelike amenities, so I got her this one yesterday......... For some reason she's not talking to me today.
