Default Got my new boat!
It is a Maverick Pathfinder with a 60 Mercury Bigfoot on the back. It push poles like a dream and runs about 12 mph faster than my old boat. Last night Yak'em and I took it out after I picked it up. We got on plane in 1.6 ft of water with both of us sitting in the back. The tunnel under the boat allows it to run more shallow than I am willing to try. I am sure Austin will post some pics from last night. We are headed out again this afternoon to chase some reds in the shallows.

Took out a guy from work today in the new boat. This boat poles like a dream. I poled for 7 hours and I am ready to go again tomorrow (which I am). I put my guy on a ton of fish and he caught his first redfish on the fly! Love the boat!
