Yep. Right up there with my top dream boats for when I grow up.

for when I grow up

Now wouldn't we all hate ta see that!!

New 17 Tail chaser

SOLD. I'll take it too.

How do you count to too

The new 17' Hewes is sposed to sell for 18.5 to 19k, BMT. Seems like a deal. But, where the heck are you going to keep your fish and cold beverages (seperately) without having coolers cluttering up the cockpit?

All fishing boats should have a dedicated space to keep TWO coolers or two built-in insulated boxes.

Ken:

People who buy high end flats boats don't keep fish. All my buddies that have Hewes or Mavericks are nearly all fly fishermen, or at least catch and release. As a result, they carry little coke size coolers which will hold maybe a lunch and two small trout, when they get the urge for a fillet outside of a resturant plate.

So Hewes is playing to those guys, not people like me, who like to eat fish that I cook myself.

Is that a new line Hewes is coming out with? That is a nice boat. Looks like they incorporated a 1700T Pathfinder, with a 16' Redfisher. I like everything except for the polling platform not hanging off the back. It might add stability where it is, but it would take fishing room off the back. I bet it barely needs water to run!!
The 2200V is a nice boat as well. I've done a lot of research on them lately, and they seem to be a great all around boat.

The problem with me owning a spensive boat like those is, I beat them up to bad. I go places with the CS Marine that surprises me sometimes. I knows it's surprised Chalk before. I heard him scream from fright once over a little ole oyster bar that I never touched. I'd be scared of scratching it.

Quote from CSMarine, " There are oyster bars to the left and to the right, it's open straight out."

10 seconds later, I scream watch out and the foot drags across the bar....

Now you know the rest of the story.....

Play nice boys.
