Pilothouse Sceptre long day on the water
 
This what my boat looks like after pulling 165 traps in 1 day. I guess i should start cleaning. http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/h...l/DCP_7600.jpg http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/h...l/DCP_7601.jpg http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/h...l/DCP_7602.jpg http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/h...l/DCP_7604.jpg http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/h...DCP_7597-1.jpg

165 traps! It better had been one hell of a "pay day"! That is one heck of a lot of work.

The boat looks to be set up very very well. I think I'm very jealous of your pilot house.

The "clean up" is neither surprising but it is very substantial. Lobstering is not a "cush" job by a very long shot!

Yeah i did alright but not as good as i would have liked, but thats what every lobsterman says. Yeah it is a nice set up but i have not got the boat to do the whole operation itself yet :) I need a sternman but i can't afford one.

That hoppy's landing . . . right? I use that ramp all the time in the summer. That's a great pilothouse and a perfect lobster/bass boat. You need a nice wide 3ft shelf over the top of motor to get the traps/totes off the deck.

Yeah never get wet in this boat, and i've been in some nasty stuff. That extra weight up front makes the vee work even better in rough water.

a clean lobster boat is not a good sign, It looks just perfect to me.
