Nice boat Chalk. You should start considering a boat dealership as a second profession; seems like you have a nack for finding nice ones. :thumbup:
In the end we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. And we will understand only what we are taught.

Wow, what a road trip. Good lookin' ride Chalk. The folks's at High Tech Trailers are a class act. They were one of my customers when I was working.

But! With your history of boat ownership. When can we expect to see The Ghostrider IV :smt017

WOW! I'm tired just from reading the adventure


Can't wait to see some pics of her in the water and a fish in your grips!

I can second that....They got me a trailer in short order with limited information. I got to the Keys and the trailer was about 2.5 to 3 foot too wide. I called and they said no problem, bring it by and we will look at it. Carried it by this morning and they took some measurements and said call me Friday we will probably have your new one done by then :thumbup: :thumbup:

Sounds like a nice trailer. Why not just trade again for a wider boat? :hammer:

Spent the better part of the day cleaning the boat...probably won't be able to move tomorrow. I decarbed the engine with seafoam....looked like a mosquito truck in the front yard. Think the boat is starting to appreciate me - after I decarbed her she would fire up in a second. Still milling over going primitive and no trolling motor or all out with 24 volts...the jury is still out

I spotted a 2004 18' Maverick with a 115 4/stroke, front casting platform, rear poling platform, and jack plate in Lanark for 20k. Sweet boat.
