Many safe and prosperous adventures in your soon to be boat !  My first boat was a jon boat with a 9.9 Evinrude that I carried in my pickup. Loved that thing !

CK - I have a similar boat to that now. I use it on smaller lakes, rivers, creeks. Bass Hunter Bass Baby.I would rather fish out of this boat than my "bass boat". So stealthy. And such a pleasure to fish in. Does very well with two people. I have side scan sonar and trolling motor for it. It is DEADLY !! It comes with wheels built into the back of it which makes it easy to load in the pickup and launch at the water body.

Tractor Supply trailers were too expensive for me. I think the one I got will work. How long is your boat? I want to get a 10', I'm thinking 8' would be too short.

I don't know what I am going to do now.

The Bass Baby is 8 feet long. A well designed 8 feet. I would check out this boat. I researched all of the available small boats like this before choosing this one. Many good design features including a one piece hull. Not a clam shell design which can be prone to cracking and leaking. There are a number of good reviews done on the Bass Baby on YouTube. You can always contact me by PM if you wish.

Would love to see your new rig.
