I bought my first boat in 2001 this 1989 Chapparal.After a couple of years it was not the boat for me.Not great for hopping from lake to lake.Sold her in 2003.

I replaced the 16ft fiberglass for one summer with this little 12 foot Thornes (1980).

I only paid $100.00 for her.It is in mint condition no dents and does not leak.This one comes camping with us when I can not bring the new boat.

While I was looking for a deal on a 12ft tinny my wife had me buy a canoe.The only floating vessel she likes.I want to sell it but she won't have any of that.

So I finally bought a boat I like in 2004 a Lund SSV 18 foot .

Had the same 12 ft. Thornes for 25 yrs, till recently stolen.

Very seaworthy lil' craft. Used it on Pigeon and even parts of L.Ontario.

Best pic is in my avatar of me with sheepshead from March this year on L.Ontario

 

cheers,
