I guess this is turning into a show your ride thread. You guys finally get to see it! The closest I have- a center console is in the thoughts right now

Now you people look here. I can't be the angel on one shoulder and the devil on the other all the time. Sometimes I have to rely on you folks to fling your own cravings on each other without my help. Y'all aren't the only people I've been assigned to aggravate in this world. Apparently I've gone and spoiled the whole lot of you. Also: JackMack hasn't been around near as much lately and he's way more fun to pester than most of you.  Derik, that is a slick little watercraft. The small stored size and almost complete lack of soaking wet nylon makes it pretty intriguing for the trunk of the Camry...at least until I see the price.  Can it be summer now, PLEASE!?!

I don't know, Commodore Hamon, why don't you tell us?  What kind of rig is the second to last? It looks like an Ultimate, but then again I think it could be wood.

That is a hand built wooden hybrid kayak built by my brother. I actually told him I wanted something similar to an Ultimate and that is what he designed and built. It is a very sweet boat that weighs in at only 41 pounds. I'll have it on display at Al Crise Day II on the 19th.  And, TXRR ... BIG!!!

I'm not sure how a Gheenoe would handle the potentially big waters of Texas...on the rivers or coastal flats, probably good. But, on Texoma or Roberts, ?? Now, for the show...One of my craft:  Oldest, but not the least  and, hopefully, the newest of my fleet:

Not very excited by the pontoon boats. I have a Scadden and one pontoon won't seal properly at the valve, making the whole thing worthless. Worst $1K I ever spent.

 It's more than the catfish would do.

I've got a 15' Riverhawk Original and I love it...Now if I could just find me a lil' outboard for muy pequeno $ I'd be in business. Here is what I REALLY want with about a 25-ish on the rear end. Click here to see a sah-weet skinny water boat
