2016 G3 Talon Dlx 1910 w/ 150 SHO. Dual 10 talons, two lowrance Elite 9ti and just replaced my Elite 7ti with a Elite 12ti for console graph. Really pleased with the ride and stability. Just wish rod boxes were bigger.

Top picture is my old tin boat, she was a 16' Alumacraft tunnel hull that served me well for over 9 years. Sold her for $200 more than what I paid for her 9 years ago. Bottom pic is my new (old) tin ride. Scandy White Open Pro tunnel. She's a skinny water performance beast. Still only 16' but with an extra 40hp. Not really a john boat, but that's her heritage.

Bit of a Work in Progress, learned how to set up the lights and installed them myself. I still feel like a small boat in a big pond even on this sub-forum but I figure y'all got my back. Goes about 3 miles round trip with my trolling motor, and does what I need for light catfishing. Yes I know I pack my house with me, it's also a wip
