Default Re: The 4 boat theory

I subscribe to a different 4 boat theory:

1) - A little hefty for a Yak but an inflatable counts as 1

2) - You need a "small" boat for running the 'lets and the upper bay & skinny water - say a 18 or so with bow mounted electric SALTWATER troller (guys - these things are the cat's nuts!). This boat is kept on the trailer ready to go at a moments notice.

3) - Now we're in the meat of things, we have a hull that can run in the snot or run offshore 50 miles if need be, doesn't pound when a SouWest builds up - I give you the 23 SC

4) - "Whaddya mean you won't use a bucket anymore?". "Shower? Before you were complaining til I dropped money for the spray rails". It's now time for that 30 Blackfin or old Moppie to round at the stable. Sure, it spends most of its time at the slip (near the fuel dock) but if the stars & moon are in alignment, it's where you'll wake up from to run over to your 23 to hit the bite at first light!

This is the 4 Boat I subscribe too and I'm 1/4 of the way there [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img]
