Decided to take the kids out one nice summer day in the early 80's for a boat ride in my 17 Mako. I took a few small spinning rods and decided to troll some.
I caught my first sail and decided to keep it to smoke. I didn't want to just throw the rest away and I decided to try a head mount. I cleaned out all the meaty areas I could, injected it with formaldehyde, then set the head in resin and coated it several times. Got eye from local taxidermist and after I finished it he painted it for me. So I've had the mount for 30 plus years and its hanging on the wall on the back porch near the pool.

Family Times
Hi Ron- Enjoyed your photos. Yes, those family times on ones SeaCraft are long lasting memories! Our son was 6 months old on his first trip rolling around in the Seafari cuddy.. I made a net so we could leave the door open and he couldn't roll out. Later there were two playing in there when we trolled offshore, kept them out of the hooks!
Best wishes to our Florida friends on Hermine. Also enjoy the soiree; we won't make this one. We've been out of town so much want to boat here in SC where Sept is the best lake month of the year.
