You can't beat an old fish-n-ski barge, fine flats boats. A friend of mine had one, man that thing was roomy and dry. I told him not to sell it, but he did and now regrets it.

Thanks for comment! I bought a new 19' tunnel model in 87 in Tally and loved it in the water but was a bit much to pull back and forth to coast
so after about 4 years I sold it in a weak moment. I was traveling
and teaching a lot in those days and couldn't justify the upkeep.
When I realized my mistake I went into depression for several years.
Every time I would see one I would walk up and offer to buy it...
most folks thought I wasn't serious but I was. I actually found this
one on Florida Sportsman auction and got it from a really nice guy
in Tally who had rebuilt it with the expertise of the Vaughn family at
Steinhatchee Boat Works.
My dearest friends and neighbors in the campground at Econfina
at James and Nancy Cone from Boston. GREAT FOLKS!
We tease James about being our resident "mayor" down there.
BEST!!!!!!!!!!!
