I am kind of ashamed to post my boat pic.
You guys have some very nice boats!!


No shame with that boat, Gambler!!!  I think it's awesome!!!

My Starcraft (posted above) was identical to your rig when I got it 12 years ago.  Small tiller outboard and two seats...  But it sure caught some fish!!  Over the years I have continued to add to it, and I really don't think I will ever get rid of it at this point...  Sure, it leaks like a sieve, but it's become a part of me after so much time...

I may buy a bigger boat someday, but I am not getting rid of the Starcraft!!!  You wouldn't beleive how many times old men have come up to take a look at the boat while I am at a gas station or boat ramp.  I built thr console, decking, wells, etc. myself so she's pretty unique...

I've found it's hard to beat a 14' aluminum fishing boat when you just wanna' hang out and fish!!!

Just finshed the upgrades today.  Figures tomorrow there calling for rain and lighting.  Shes come a long way since I got it. 
Here she is the day I brought her home.

After the build

This showed up thursday

With the new upgrades ready to go(i.e. Nav. lights, deck lights, motor, second sonar, and some other changes)


Don't ask how many hours I got into it because I don't even know anymore but I'm proud of her.
