He posted this on www.2coolfishing.com (http://www.2coolfishing.com) on july 6th.

Thanks for asking guys, and yes, rumors of my demise are highly exaggerated. I know I should have checked in a lot sooner, but the 'no spin' truth is that I sorta tucked tail into a little reclusive funk here lately. Not saying I'm a racehorse or anything, but when you're used to running with the herd everyday, and then all of a sudden find yourself hobbled down and looking at the glue factory, well, you might just want to hunker down in your stall a while too. Well I did.

Foot IS getting better, but man that's going to be one ugly appendage when this is all over. I may have to buy some pink crocks to cover it up. Still have a lot of meat to grow back yet, and there are still some tendons and veins exposed so have to be careful. Was going back to the hospital every day but think I can handle it now....or at least am going to try. It was an hour in, then 3 or 4 hours there, plus an hour back each day which made you totally worthless. I can stand, walk a bit and sit for a while, but not for very long before it gets angry again and then I have to find a prop up hole for a few hours. A good night's sleep just ain't gonna happen and we all might forget how many nerves a foot has in it. A bunch of them are apparently growing back now and they are all fighting for attention, especially when you're supposed to be counting sheep and not lightning bolts up your foot. By the way, Vicodin is not a good thing, does not help anything, and only tends to make you stupid and makes the world revolve around the couch. That Rx strength Ibuprofen rocks though and sure helps knock the swelling back down. Good stuff.

Anyway, enough whining already. It's going to be O.K. and am shooting for getting wet the 1st of October. Capt. Tricia is still knocking the fire out of some great fish but I think is trying to kill herself trying to do it all, both on the water and at the house. Tough (rough lol) girl.

If I could say anything, it would be that the entire world has a lot to learn from the people at 2Cool. This site was appropriately named. It's about people helping each other, whether it's a question about an air conditioner, a lure, a spot, or even about one of us getting into a bind. The response Tricia & I received on the benefit auction was overwhelming and there are no words worthy enough to express our humble gratitude. I just hope one day I can be the man my dog thinks I am, and I certainly hope I can give back to the people even here a fraction of the blessings we've received.

Thanks to everybody again, but the main thing is let's learn from this and shoot for nobody else getting hurt. The stable is no place you want to be...trust me, so wear those darn guards and keep your wounds covered. To think we're bullet proof is machisimo at it's dumbest. Y'all leave a few out there for me...will ya lol?

(ps. No I didn't run spell check. That stupid Vicodin told me it didn't matter)

end







Man those Stingrays can jack you up!!!!!!!

07-13-2009, 02:31 PM
just my opinion, but everyone I've talked to said the yamaha 200 4 stroke isn't a great motor. Thats why I went with the 150 4 stroke on my frontier. @00 is much heavier with not much better performance. Now that boat with the 200 HPDI would move! I wish I had put that engine on my frontier!

But I promise you will not be disappointed with that boat.

150 would push it good. I cruise at about 36 and top out around 50 with me and one person.

Chris at Haynie is a Mercury dealer. I'd put the 200 or 225 optimax on it!

all star rod
07-13-2009, 02:54 PM
CMDROST, I agree with you. The Yamaha 200 4 stroke is almost 100 pounds heavier than the HDPI 2 stroke. The 150 4 stroke and 200 HPDI have basically the same weight. I really do not see too many 200 4 strokes on the water but I see a lot of 225 and 250.

225 opti on the Z21 no doubt

without a doubt, a 200 or 225 will get you a lot better cruise speed not to mention top end. Plus it doesn't have to work as hard as a 150 which will improve mileage. A pad boat like that will not perform right without enough horsepower to lift the nose up.

in some of the pictures i saw some plastic lids and plastic cleats, not sure why they wouldn't just use glass lids and stainless.

one thing about the speckle paint finish inside is that it's much easier to keep looking clean

If you are looking at getting a Yamaha go on their web site and look at the test data they have done on boats. Maybe yours was not tested but I am sure you can find one that is pretty close to the weight and hull design of the one you are looking at(Haynie). Hard to believe that boat has a weight of 1,350# and rated for a 250hp. The test results/data that Yamaha did with the 4 stroke 150/Xpress X22Bay are pretty dang accurate compared to the way mine runs....fuel ecomony, top speed, speed @ rpms, and plane time. If anything the test data is conservative based on the load weight during the test. I usually have more weight in my boat since I fish three 90% of the time. Also, a 4 stoke can run at higher RPMS than a 2 stroke DI motor. I bet the Optimax has the same range as the HPDI...5,500 rpms compared to a 4 stoke at 6,000 RPMS. I bet that boat would fly with a 225 Optimax!
I think the 150 Yamaha 4 stoke is more than enough motor for that boat...get a jack plate.

Allways get what the boat is rated for. The boat performs the best with that rating. It dont mean you have to run it in the corner all the time but if you need it you got it. Under rating a boat is hard work on the motor most of the time. Not talking about all boats but hulls 19' and up.

Nothing wrong with putting the MAX H.P...but do you really need it... One question 80-90% of 24' bay boat are rated for a 300H.P. motor....how many do you see with a 300H.P. on the back (10%-20%)?????? Most have 225H.P. or 250H.P. To me if the motor can run at least 50mph and get out of the hole quick with a load then good enough for me...but to each his own. I my case I went with a 150 4 stroke over a 200 HPDI....the HPDI was 6 mph faster...but running at 40mph the gas mileage was basically the same....and I wanted a 4 stroke.

4??? Look at these 24' bay boats manufacutres on their web site I bet you they have a 300H.P. max rating: Triton LTS, Natuic Star, Blazer Bay, Sea Pro, Ranger, Champion, Scout, Skeeter, Shearwater, Blue Wave, Hydra-Sports and so on....most 24' bay boat companies rate them for a 300H.P....OK so if they are rated for a 250 and the have a 225 then are the under powered??? I would be you that most have a 225 or 250HP on their boat. I bet you $100 if you look at 10 24' bay boat rated for a 300HP 7-8 have a 225 or 250HP on the back. Heck I know 3 guides out of Dularge that have 24' blazer bay boat (rated for a 300) and they have 225 or 250 on the back. Again, nothing wrong with going with the max H.P. but I would give up HP to get the motor I wanted as long as the boat still ran @ 50 and got out of the hole quick with a load.

Look at these 24' bay boats manufacutres on their web site I bet you they have a 300H.P. max rating: Triton LTS, Natuic Star, Blazer Bay, Sea Pro, Ranger, Champion, Scout, Skeeter, Shearwater, Blue Wave, Hydra-Sports and so on....most 24' bay boat companies rate them for a 300H.P....OK so if they are rated for a 250 and the have a 225 then are the under powered??? I would be you that most have a 225 or 250HP on their boat.
well you are correct to some degree but horsepower ratings on most of them are from 200-300 and 250-300 so testing complies with that.

Well if a 24' has a HP range of 100HP then why don't a 22' boat have that range. It is all a marketing thing. Most boat makers do not want to price themselves out. Most can still afford a 22' with a 200 or 225 with Max HP. Think about it.

bottom line is that this boat with a light fishing load should do close to 50 with a 150, it would do north of 60 with a 2 1/4 propped right

that's a lot

My Xpress X22 Bay boat which has a dry weight of 1,700# compared to this boat of 1,350# does right at 50mph....48/49 @ 5,900rpms (I have a 6" jack plate) with 3 men in the boat, 44 gallons of fuel plus a 152qt ice chest, fishing tackle, three batteries plus the other crap you carry....This boat with a 150 should easliy do 50mph loaded. I know this I would rather have a little less speed and have a 4 stroke Yamaha 150 then a Merc Optimax 200/225. Also, how many times are you able to run a bay boat at 60 plus MPH....this is not bass fishing...

I would like some info before I drive to Texas!!

How much does the 24ft cost?

MERCURY OUTBOARD MAN
07-22-2009, 06:20 PM
The plastic lids and cleats are an option we do use fiberglass lids and pull up ss cleats if you want these boats are custom we have right at 200 guides using these boats from baffin bay to lake charles the rougher the water the better they will run the 24 high output with 225 pro xs will run 60-64 mph thats not bad for a 24 ft boat without a doubt, a 200 or 225 will get you a lot better cruise speed not to mention top end. Plus it doesn't have to work as hard as a 150 which will improve mileage. A pad boat like that will not perform right without enough horsepower to lift the nose up.

In some of the pictures i saw some plastic lids and plastic cleats, not sure why they wouldn't just use glass lids and stainless.

One thing about the speckle paint finish inside is that it's much easier to keep looking clean

The z 21 with 225 proxs will run 4 mph over rpm if you are looking at getting a yamaha go on their web site and look at the test data they have done on boats. Maybe yours was not tested but i am sure you can find one that is pretty close to the weight and hull design of the one you are looking at(haynie). Hard to believe that boat has a weight of 1,350# and rated for a 250hp. The test results/data that yamaha did with the 4 stroke 150/xpress x22bay are pretty dang accurate compared to the way mine runs....fuel ecomony, top speed, speed @ rpms, and plane time. If anything the test data is conservative based on the load weight during the test. I usually have more weight in my boat since i fish three 90% of the time. Also, a 4 stoke can run at higher rpms than a 2 stroke di motor. I bet the optimax has the same range as the hpdi...5,500 rpms compared to a 4 stoke at 6,000 rpms. I bet that boat would fly with a 225 optimax!
I think the 150 yamaha 4 stoke is more than enough motor for that boat...get a jack plate.

Really if I ever owned a MERC it would be an Optimax. I just think Yamaha is a better motor. Most guides and people that run crab traps have Yamaha 4 strokes.

I have a 19' Cobia bay boat with a 150 Yahama 4 stroke. It runs 50 mph wide open with me and the wife, full of gas, eats and drinks, and about 43 mph loaded with me and Jfranovich(BIG ole country boy), 3 full ice chests, and supplies for an all day fishing trip.
I run about 35 mph at 4500 rpms fully loaded. She gets on top step o.k., but not like my old boat with a 2 cycle Mercury.
But my fuel economy is pretty great compared to my old 2 cycle Mercury.
I can talk to anyone fishing with me when running at any speed. The Yamaha is a super quiet motor.
My boat doesn't have rolled sides, she has the liner. She weighs 1960 lbs. dry, without engine.
I got her because it was one of the few boats that would fit in my car port and it had a 60 gal. gas tank.
I don't know now well a 150 would push a 22 ft'er, unless it is a light boat.

They are out of Wisconsin.....

Not on Boats, brother lives in Greenville Ms and all of the boats at the yatch club have MI on them. Don't worry it won't be the first time you have been wrong.

How does a Haynie compare to the Blackjack 22' model


Well, for one the Blackjack is a boat with a cap. The Haynie's have wood whereas the Blackjack's do not. Now, Chris says that the wood is all glassed over, so, we'll see. The price is also a factor; about $8,000 difference. I personally like the Blackjack, but wish it was a 24'. If Bill Kenner makes a 24' Blackjack, you will see them all over the lake, as they will be a lifetime hull. I would be going from 24' to 22.5' fishing 3 people plus me everyday. Not sure how it will be. THe Haynie is 24' and just a little narrower than the BJ. Ultimately, 2 great boats with different pros and cons. It's all about preference.

In my opinion, I would not get a boat with wood in it, even if it was glassed over, if I were keeping it for a long time. Sooner or later, water will rot the wood if you use it enough. I have seen a lot of boats at Olmsted Shipyard fixing soft decks and transoms from wood rot. Water seems to seep down screws used for seats and tops. There are ways to prevent this, if the boat builder builds it right. But I still would rather not take the chance. There are too many new coring products that can take the place of wood, but will not rot like wood.

Bill Kenner told me at the last boat show that a 24 blackjack and 24 frontier are in the works and should be out by 2010.

Drost, we've been hearing about a 24 BJ and Frontier since he startted building them. Those will be some great boats. If I am not mistaken, and maybe I am, the Frontier has wood and the BJ does not. Most all non-capped boats will contain wood. Haynie's are SOLID built boats and so are Bill's boats. Either way, W or myself will have a good boat for years to come.

The wood we use is called boat panel you can not buy at lowes are home depot it comes with a 100 year warranty against rot,the composite on the other hand does have a lifetime warranty against rot and rot only but what happens when your motor falls of the back of your boat like more than 1 has done in the IFA tournament out of kema and texas redfish series. both were composite boats and i talked to one of the owners of one of the well known boat builders and he was told if he could use the boat panel like he did on most all of the boats he has built threw the years this would not have happened in my eyes the composite deal is a sales pitch.look at 2 year old composite boat that has been run in rough water you will see stress cracks every where and thats considered not warranty,some ofthe best selling boats come from texas and they all have wood and its for a reason <strength> In my opinion, I would not get a boat with wood in it, even if it was glassed over, if I were keeping it for a long time.

I keep a Chris Craft boat at Olmsted Shipyard in a boat shed there. I have seen a LOT of boats come in to get soft decks fixed due to rotten wood. I have to believe what I see, not what I hear.

quiksilver baby, merc all the way

jet black helps you sneak up on the fish better, but if you want it to look good at 10 years old get solid white.

Wood in a boat is not a bad thing at all if it's done right. My boston whaler is a 1970 model,and it has wood in it....still solid as a rock.I've never really heard of a haynie untill now,but it seems to be a well built boat from what I can see.

That 21 ft. Haynie weighs 1400 lbs. dry.
My 19 ft. Cobia weighs 1960 lbs. dry.
That is a lot of difference. It don't draw much water either.
