Im just a highschool student who has been fishing off the bank his whole life. Never even stepped foot on a bass boat. Finally the real deal is her, i have finally saved up enough money from working at a local shotgun range to by a 1979 kingfisher. Cant wait to put it on the water this weekend!

Good luck on your new toy. After many many years I can still remember my first boat and how much fun I had in it.

Same here Troyz, I remember washing it, detailing it 4 or 5 times before I put in the water. LOL

You have no idea what you have just done! It always starts small. Then you gotta have more. More deck space, more storage, bigger motor, better electronics, larger livewells, structure scan, trolling motors, etc..................... I will pray for you.

way to go. If you have never been on a boat please have someone show you how to operate it on the water. Also wear your life jacket please.

Good for you. Life is good, work hard and save your money and then spend it on a boat, LOL I remember my first boat it was a stick steer Falcon bass boat with an 85 Merc. on it. We sure caught a lot of fish in that boat. Remember the fish don't know if your boat is brand new and cost $$$$$ or care, they just like or don't like the way you present the bait. So take your time and know you lake and be safe and catch one for me.
Life is Short, so Ride a Harley, Fish out of a Ranger, Marry a Beautiful Woman, and TRUST GOD ! ! !
