Thoughts On My New Boat

I just bought a new Ranger 619 VS last year, and though I really like that boat, the gas mileage isn’t what I expected. So I thought about it this year, and with the price of gas going up I decided to trade it in for a model that is lighter and has better gas mileage. After looking around for awhile, I finally found my boat. Below is a pic of my new boat. It’s economical, and easier to tow. Although it was used (pre-owned) it was a really good deal and in excellent shape. I just wondered what your guys' thoughts are on my new purchase.Thanks.

I like it, but you may find some members being over critical of your purchase.

Good luck with it.

For a "green" approach, it looks a little pink... report how long each charge lasts.

Re: Thoughts On My New Boat

Seen that before but I still laugh everytime I see it. I really like the conduit that is bungee-corded to the...er, umh stern because he ran out of pallet planks.
That thing would be really confusing with navigation lights

Very good Ted, didn't stop laughing for 5 minutes. They seemed to have overlooked one thing though. Just where does the co-angler stow his gear?
Very cool!

Re: Thoughts On My New Boat

I know it is a joke and all, but it got me thinking that something like that would work great on some of the smaller ponds in my area.

But I guess I will just stick with the float tube.

Actually, I drew up some plans for one similar to that one about 20 years ago that used 10-inch PVC pipe for pontoons and had a plywood deck. I just never built it.
