    Default Got New Boat Today!!!!!!!!!!!pics


    Finally got the Pro Crappie 175 and at a reasonable price. Purchased the boat at Jaco's Marine in Lawrenceburg, Tn. As you can see, from the pics, the boat is still in it's shipping slip (cover). I get to drill the transom holes, mount the motor, mount all the electronics, everything is mine to do as I want it. That is the engine in the back of the truck, but it isn't the one going on this boat. Everybody needs a spare engine.... ha. The boat is a 2005 closeout, plus I am saving the "rigging" expense. Rigging will give me something to do next week. Oughta keep me busy for a few days. My Honey is really happy. She likes the built in minnow buckets and the fact that she don't have to sit so high in the back seat when fishing...... Will be posting pics as I put this thing together...

    $10.5K for the full Pro Crappie 175 package (not rigged). 40 hp Merc 4 stroke.
    All 2005 stuff. They even thru in a on board charger, hats, etc. but couldn't get a good boat cover out of them...ha...Lot better than that 13K+ showroom price...
    I negotiated most by phone before I went to see them.
