Slick looking rig..... I wondered what you were up to when I saw your old boat for sale.

You did good..... Nice upgrade.

Give us some specifics.... Size and HP

That's going to be a great rig for the river!

Looks like you have dual fish finders, are they linked together?

Thanks...

18.3 long, 92" beam, 64" bottom. Upgraded to hydraulic steering, jackplate, 80 lb Fortrex, onboard charger and added a couple of Elite 7 Chirps front and rear ... Came with front and rear livewells, went with no carpet and Crestliners sprayed in liner which is nice ...

Still piddling with installing rod holders, tackle organizers, and put a butt seat up front. This is my first Honda, thing runs like a sewing machine :smokin: ...

Working thru break in periods, running low 40's now with good hole-shot . Once broke in I will start playing with jackplate and props and may get 45 out of her ... Straight semi V hull, so I'm not expecting much more than that w/90 hp .

Shopped till I was blue in the face, kept coming back to Crestliner after looking around at every other aluminum bass boat and finally pulled the trigger ... Iberia Marine was great to work with, good small dealership all family run ... Greenwell Springs was the runner up, nothing wrong with them just didn't want a Merc 4 stroke :shaking:

Went with Elite 7 Chirps, HDS's were getting real spencey quick when adding goodies !!! Chirps fit my beer budget and have some cool imaging ...

Is that a screen shot of yours on the river? Sure is some great detail!

Yup, up river near Holbrook... Old piles beneath the waterline :D

Looks like a good spot to drown a shiner !!!

Gotta be careful with this DI stuff, its mesmerizing to putt along and see what you have been fishing over for the last 5 years ... Cant wait to go to Toledo :grinpimp:

That's incredible! Pick the fish you want to catch.

Dunno about all of that, but it sure gives a nice view of what's beneath ;)

Very nice..... Aluminum boats have come a long way.
