Thread: Boats

18' Fiberglass MonArk bass boat. 85hp Suzuki bored up to a 105hp. She'll get up to 50mph while on the pad. Not the fastest but I can out run those damn jetskiers :D.

You have one clean Skeeter Bassman. Those boats can really get up into the shallows.

Yeah they can, I was amazed at how shallow it goes.

Here's a pretty neat board I check out a few times a week: http://bbcboards.zeroforum.com/

If you scroll down there's a section for skeeters. The restoration section is pretty good too.

Thanks I'll have to look at this site since theres a skeeter section.

Mine is a 16' Smokercraft Kingfisher with the center console. A 40hp Honda provides good top end speed and at idle it gives me the perfect trolling speed. I love that motor! I'm mostly set up for salmon fishing with a matched pair of Scotty electric downriggers and an Eagle dual frequency sonar/gps unit. I'd like to put a bow mount trolling motor on it for lake fishing. Does anyone know if they make one with a quick dicsconnect mounting bracket?

Yeah ducksoup the minkota makes a quick conect for their bow mounts. Take a look a basspro and cabelas.

Sounds like some nice boats here! I have a 12' car topper w/ an 8 HP Johnson. :p

Car toppers are so fun to put in those hard to get to lakes where you can get big bass and crappie. I have a 9.4 foot mini bass boat with a minnkota up front and a nissan outboard just for that.
