misfish Posted March 8, 2009 Report Posted March 8, 2009 Sweet rims Lew. Looking forward to hear your first response when you open her wide out.
pikehunter Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 As a once famous U.S Marine would say, SHASAM! Goooollllly Sergeant Carter you gunno catch a mess o' fish with dat one!
Pigeontroller Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Is there anything more exciting than waiting to get a new boat? Nice looking machine there Lew!
Rattletrap2 Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Wow Lew! I can't believe I totally missed the fact that you got yourself a new boat! I'm sure there must have been a few posts on the subject before now? That is one sweet looking set-up. Did you trade the Crestliner in? That would have been a nice boat to pick-up. Congratulations!
tschirk Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Awsome ride Lew, I wish you many fine Musky visits in it!
Blue_Axela Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 That PD bowmount Terova is coming off and I'm replacing it with a Maxxum Pro cable steer with the lift assist, which supposedly takes about 1/2 the weight off the motor for lifting in and outta the water and should be a nice feature when putting in a long day of fishing. Nice boat! Are you looking to sell the Terrova? How many lbs is it and what is the shaft length?
SlowPoke Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Very nice package you have there Lew she is really big wide and long. ...anyway... Great looking ride there Lew. Nice colour combo!
lew Posted March 9, 2009 Author Report Posted March 9, 2009 Thanks again folks, it should be an enjoyable fishing season. Is there anything more exciting than waiting to get a new boat? Your right Dax, but it's gonna be a very long 6 weeks waiting till I pick it up Did you trade the Crestliner in? That would have been a nice boat to pick-up. The Crestliner was bought by a good friend of mine Brian and it's nice to know it's going to a family that'll look after it and have many years of fun and fishing in it. Are you looking to sell the Terrova? How many lbs is it and what is the shaft length? Sorry Blue_Axela, but the dealer is swapping the motors before I even take delivery of the boat. ...anyway... I was thinking the same thing Brian
jwl Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 nice new ride Lew, I bet you can't wait to put years of fishin in that
Fishmaster Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Sweet boat Lew bet you can't wait to get it outa that messy Garage ...not sure i would like chains swining around my new boat ..
TJQ Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Thats great Lew.. Im with you... I cant wait to get up to camp.. its been a really long winter up here...
fishnsled Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Sweet!!!! Judging by the ice on Simcoe on the weekend it will be a while before ice out. You could do what I did when I got mine a few years ago. Scugog had just opened up while the other lakes were still frozen. Went from the river down to Port Perry and back, man was it cold. So cold that when the boat came out it had ice hanging on the sides from the spray. Wouldn't have traded that day for any other. First fishing day was a couple of weeks later on Simcoe and my Dad was the first one to boat a fish in my new ride. About a 5 inch perch at a cost of $25, 000 to get us out there. Memories to last a lifetime - priceless. Looking forward to hearing about some of your memories in the making. Congrats again on the new ride.
lew Posted March 9, 2009 Author Report Posted March 9, 2009 About a 5 inch perch at a cost of $25, 000 to get us out there. Memories to last a lifetime - priceless. I know where your coming from Will and your 100% right. It seems like alot of $$$$ when you 1st write that big cheque, but when you look back down the road on all the memories with friends & family in that boat, it doesn't seem so expensive anymore. Good times !!
ecmilley Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 nice ride Lew, btw do you need my address so you can pick me up on the way to pigeon?
lew Posted March 9, 2009 Author Report Posted March 9, 2009 Sounds good to me Ernie, I fish Pigeon alot & it'd be good to have you along
Guest steel'n'esox Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Beautiful boat and awesome layout Beautiful rig Lew, glad to see you already have installed the downeasters, with that big quiet 150 four stroke youll be able to sneak up on ol esox right up to December 15 in zone 17 if the proposed regs change for 2110?
