He needs a safety chain between the trailer and the boat and some transom straps to keep the boat on the trailer. I did notice that.
He also has a custom cover for it. Mounts from the T-top to the outside edge of the boat to keep birdsheet out.

In 20 more years...
He don't spent a buttload on what he gots.
I gave him 4 bottom fishing rods, 1 trolling rod, 8' aluminum rig hook and a 5' gaff that I had when I fished offshore. He just needs 4 good trolling rods and some lures/tackle and he will be ready to go.

They are custom built, only 2 of them sold in La. so far. Pretty solid built.
When you hit the side, it sounds solid. Not hollow.

The one I went on was not a calcutta but was a catamaran. Turning was kinda weird. The boat stays level and doesn't lean like a v bottom. Smooth ride in the rough water though

26' long, 8'6" wide. They are trying to get all the paperwork done so he can take her out Sat. in Grand Isle.

He bought it straight from the manufacturer. They don't do the paperwork for you like a dealer does. His wife is going to the Dept. of Revenue to pay the taxes, then she has to go to the DMV to title and register the trailer, then to the LDWF to title and register the boat.
We got all the paperwork together she needed yesterday, except for a notarized bill of sale. They only sent a purchase agreement with the boat.

Nice bay boat.

I hope the person in this pic is at least 7'4" tall



What's the cockpit depth? looks like 16" - 18"

It is higher up front and lower in the cockpit. It sits high in the water, but is good for inland also. It draws 12" of water.

Ray,

Looks like you guys have had that boat for about 1 1/2 now, can I get some feedback on likes and dislikes or things you would change? I'm looking to purchase one from Steve and want to make sure I get it right. Any advise would be greatly appreicated.

Thanks
Eric
