Looks like the Sea Pickle.......Garys trolling motor shaft if 100yards long

go check it out, stand on the cavitation plate of the motor and bounce up and down to make sure transom is solid

also stomp around inside on all the decks to check for soft spots.

that would make a good vermillion bay boat.

should be some good boat deals starting to pop up, the buying season is slowing down now.

I hear Cape Horn makes a superior boat. I don't know about the Merc. I'm a Merc owner right now, but I'm no fan of them.

Cape Horn is one heck of a boat. decent ride, very dry. As for the motor if the deal is as sweet as you say, sell the motor for whatever you can get and buy a yammie or Zuke

I was in Gulf Breeze 3 days ago...........nice place.....nice boat............ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND????????? I can't afford that!!!

Dink 07-01-2009 11:48 PM

I think Merc is top notch..........it's the HotRod of the water, plus nothing sounds like a Merc V6........I'd rather a newer model, but you get what your wife and wallet tell you too..................................ya know??

Tim you had some fun on your trip. Them snook wore you azz off.

Dink 07-01-2009 11:55 PM

Yeah they did........wait....I didn't have one to begin with??? Lol........I wish I'd gone afte the Trout earlier.......My mistake, won't happen again, I'll be goin back to Stuart in a few years....The capt, said I could hire him for the afternoon and he'd show me where to go, what to fish with and what times to do it. Then I can go myself the rest of the time and load up!!! Wanna go?

cape horns are great boats..they are made in milton,FL. right outside pensacola..they have a cult following around here ...no wood,unsinkable...but new or used they are pretty proud on the prices.....also what you have there is a pre-2002 style hull which are known as a "wet horn" for the wet ride ...in 2002 they redesigned the hull and put alil more flare in the bow, they are kick *** now and very dry....i wish i could find me a used post-2002 17fter!
