Title: Got My New Boat Yesterday
Post by: Zpg on July 17, 2007, 10:58:48 AM
After a bit of looking I found my new fishing/fun boating boat. I was impressed with the construction philosophy of the Double Eagle boats so I looked hard to find one in good shape. I ended up getting this one on the Island as the price there was a LOT less than the ones I saw here, and in way better condition.

Now I just have to get a couple of mooching/downrigger rods and reels so I can head out on the chuck.

Very nice!  What are the specs on the boat?  How much did you get it for?  Looks to have a very aggressive deadrise for a smooth ride in the chop.

Thanks Dave :)

What's with the new "handle"?? I thought they couldn't be changed??

I guess if I do a search I will find a thread of other peeps asking the same question...

Think I like your old one better..... but you have to like simplicity too....guess I'll have to chew on it for a while.
