nice boat man!!!! congrats

looks like it came off the showroom!!

Yeh my bosses son had bout it in february and he just didnt use it like he thought he would and is wanting a smaller boat so i scooped it up when he layed down an awesome price for me! It has right at 20 hours he just got it back from the dealer for the 20 hour check up or whatever

nice rig ! congrats
now all u need to do is put a power pole on it !

When we going fishing.

im going tomorrow and then i dont know possibly friday. Then i plan on fishin monday and tuesday of next week

yeh a power pole would be awesome . . . . you pay for it and ill put it on haha

perfect little boat for that bay system, will get you anywhere you need to go.

should be easy on gas too

lol ! sorry it would go on my boat , i need another one !!

I have the same boat but z nauticstar. Love it. It's not the fastest thing but it will get u there.

HAHA thats understandable

how is that nauti star?
it seems like a heavy boat they are nice as crap tho

Got the same size motor and boat in a vision series....some say size up.....i sized down from a 22 ftr. w/ 200 yamaha. Best choice for me.....economical.....transferable...easy to load and unload when alone....Big lake alone won't sink it....can maneuver it in tight spots (freshwater) ...Only downside is WOT on mine is 44 but that's plenty fast and im not fishing the bassmaster classic for a living.....was a little nervous about downsizing...but in all practicality, i think your gonna be in love. Have fun and ENJOY! And powerpole....your good w/o it'll get in the way of your guy fishing off the back deck.....plus more moving parts in the water = more trouble on the water....just get you a driftsock made for 20-22ft boats and a manual anchor and you'll be good to go =)

Nice boat by the way...will be easy to spot =)

I love my nauticstar. It is a heavy boat but handles ruff water better than any other 18 ft. The draw back is I only can run about 38 mph. I might go after work tomorrow and will be out there sat. Tight lines and congrats on the new rig.

i have they exact same boat just red and 3 years older. i love mine. i fish alone alot and it is all i need. i put a jackplate on mine and it helped a little on top end not much though. its ruff in a chop but it can handle some waves. i took it 15 miles out this summer.

congrats and thats a good looking color

thanks guys! Yeh i went out this morning in it but i was fighting the damn wind so i docked it and went to west marine and got me a new Garmin Depth Finder slash GPS color screen! I love it lol now i just need to get back in the water and try it out!
i was thinking about a jack plate but wasnt to sure if it would be worth it thanks for the info and thanks on the boat!! I LOVE IT!

You done good......I've seen so many people mess up a good boat by putting a hummingbird or lowrance in it......

yeh it had a humming bird, i yanked that fugger out . . .

If the boat is already dialed in correctly I would say no on the jackplate. Can you get 40-45 mph top end? When youre on plane, does your cavitation plate kick up a lot of spray or does it sit close to flush with the waterline? This really depends on your definition of "worth it" , very nice to have but nearly 1K buys lots of baits and gas. :redface:
It's not going to add much speed if any in this power range. I bet the main advantage would be shallow water holeshots.

If the boat doesn't have electric trim tabs, those would be worth it IMHO.
