Maiden Voyage

Should be this Friday on Lewisville.





Picked her up last night and started rigging her out and can't wait to get her on the water to see how it will fish.

beautiful boat

Looks great! Love the color. Congrats

Thanks Guys.



I had to get the blue or else I would have had to change my TFF Handle.

NICE!!!!

Nice..... VERY NICE INDEED......

two thumbs up !

"REDNitro" has a pretty nice ring to it?.......

NICE looking ride though!

That's purty!

I will stop by if I see you out there. Looks good.

Nice boat. I like those Nitros.
jfe

Your gonna love it best ride .Your gonna be happy for yrs and the fuel mileage is great.Darrell

Nice but they do make blue pontoons you know. I bet if I had that motor on my toon it would fly. (Literally)

Very nice Ron, really purdy.
So I'm guessing you're not gona be bumping trees at RC Sat.

Ron you done good, show us your TM set up once you get it installed.

Oh btw, I sure hope you stand up while fishing.

Very nice! You are gona get there fast!

Are you gona put one of those TM contraptions on your new boat? Xi5 right?

Beautiful, congratulations!

Beautiful boat Ron! I looked long and hard at them a year ago. I want to hear some reports! Heck you don't even have to change your name.

Congrats!! Very nice indeed.

>E

It is purty enjoy.

bet you cant [censored] off the side of it for awhile lmao .

Kongrats on that beauty...you're ready for action now

At first I thought hey that's the same boat Nitro that's blue, nice rig, congratulations.

Best day ever, new boat.

Hey are those seats super comfy, they look it?

Nice sled Sharp!

If that is where the crappie are than you can bet your boots that is where I am headed. You can also bet your boots that I'm gonna use my tourney part as a bumper by tying him to the side of the boat (Dave - if you read this you may want to bring nothing but 16 foot rods so we can stay a safe distance from any hazards).

Kirk and DFW - I'll get pics of the trolling motor this weekend but yes it is a Xi5 with a LiftSaver TM Mount. The way it would have set on the front of this boat, I wouldn't been able to mount the TM without the LiftSaver.

I also didn't get what you were saying Kirk until I saw the pic with the seats off the posts. Yeah, I need to put the seats on before Davedave get's onboard.

Hey Ernest - I was hoping you and Guy wouldn't see the pics so I could potlick off you a couple of times before you figured out it was me. I'll make sure I pull over when I see you so I can talk you out of the toon and back into a bass boat.

Beautiful

Thanks for all the compliments on my new girlfriend. She is just what I wanted and I looked at a lot of boats but kept going back to this one for many different reasons.


I just can't wait to take my 'New Girlfriend' out for a ride and break her in right so I get many, many years of great use out of her.

They said you could put a 12" FF in the dash so...............

I cried the whole time while I was hacking on my new boat which hasn't even seen the water yet.



But I am all smiles now!!!!!!!

You kinda went down the long road to keep the name "Blue Nitro" Be safe on the maiden voyage....
If you need a LiftSaver for your new trolling motor give me a call. I know a guy....

Thanks David.

David supplied the Fish Finder, Trolling Motor and a few other parts and as always, it was a pleasure doing business with David (I also call him a good friend). If any of you are looking for 'stuff' for your boat and need any installation work or on the water education than you really need to give him a call. I send everyone I know directly to him because he has always treated them right. And he does stock the LiftSaver so you can pick up one of those too or call me/pm me personally and we will take care of you.

Ron we need to get some catfish slime on her maiden voyage to ward off that bluenitro curse,that front deck has plenty of room so we can sort the shad from the castnet ..as hard as you work you have deserved this boat for a long time congrats

Ron, congrats on the new Nitro. She's pretty and after you have her dolled up, she'll be a beauty.

Good luck and tight lines.

congrats sir Ron!

Beautiful boat...i'll keep an eye out for you.

Very nice!

Sexy boat and it's my favorite color

Very sweet looking rig!! Was it at Chambers yesterday? I didn't see it if so but we were crashing into trees all day. Take that sucker to Cooper or Fork and fish the Bois D Arcs and get it broke in right! That or like dude said cast net a buncha shad on the front deck!! My boats so dirty the carpet foams when it rains!!!

Somehow I just don't see that happening.

Not at all. Ron is meticulous. He is gonna be sad the first scratch. Ron just run it between 2 trees right off the bat on purpose. Then you can fish it.

No, we fished out of David's boat. I am trying to find a gremlin with the HDS StructureSacn (won't power up) so all I have is 2D right now.



Speaking of being meticulous, can you spot the one thing in the above picture that is driving me absolutely crazy?



I don't think any shad or catfish will be hitting this deck anytime soon.



I thought she needed a little more blue. There are 6 more lights on the front deck as well as in the tackle box and rod boxes.

OMG - YES!!!

I think they screwed up at the factory because I got the top of the line seats at no cost.

I was complaining to the salesperson about the seats and the brackets on the display boat. They were smaller and the bracket put them on a awkward angle so when I saw my new ones I was very happy.

I also got the upgraded Fury prop for free as well.

Speedometer looks crooked.

What do I win?

You ain't lying Darrell. I thought all the NVT and Parabolic strakes was a bunch of marketing BS but it is one of the best rides out there and I have been on many newer bass boats. We drove her around for 5 and half hours and never trimmed the motor (load on motor during break-in period) and it only burned a little over a 1/8 of a tank.

I am betting its those wires bouncing around on the trolling motor.

Winner, winner - chicken dinner!!!

A boat ride/fishing trip and the opportunity to straighten it out for me because I am so over getting fiberglass in my hands.

Lol. I've done a few fiberglass projects and cut on a couple boats myself. I feel your pain.

Glad you got the Fury prop. I've had a custom prop that was for racing on a bass boat and the Fury prop is the best out of the box prop I've ever put on a boat.

Ditto!

Very nice looking ride

I knew I should have been at David's place when you guys were rigging that boat. But now when we want to find you on the lake, we just look for the 'pimped up' ride.

Nice looking boat....wish I could afford one

Pictures of the trolling motor mounted on the LiftSaver Plus.





The Xi5 would have hit the trailer every time but no issues now.

Very, very nice! Hope to see you on LL so I can see first hand!

Nice! I know a guy that sells those worth the money. Looking good BN!

Very nice Ron. That is a beautiful boat and it's been a Long time coming.I am interested to see how you deal with the T M transducer wire.

Watching you catch the first crappie on the new boat was cool. Nice boat Ron.

Thanks for the awesome pics David.

I went over to SUAF and helped put a new Ultrex on Tim's boat and then we all went to LL so Tim could calibrate the new TM so I had to drop a jig while they were doing that and pulled 7 or 8 fish off that pole. Then I put my boat on spot lock and hopped on Tim's boat to show him and mark some waypoints on LL. While I was doing this, David is cruising around getting these pictures. Awesome day on the water with good friends.



Steve - thanks and it is already done so stop by sometime and I will show you what I did.

Even drinks blue gatoraid!!

Note the blue underwear when I moon ya next time I see you.

That's one sweet ride. Let me know when we're doing top speed testing. I love speed. I looked at nitro a lot when boat shopping. That's what I would have gotten if we didn't get the bay boat. Still wanted to go fast so I changed the prop on it. Lol.
