As ive stated before I live on the upper Chesapeake bay. Fishing is right along with shooting/hunting. Due to some vascular problems my hunting days are pretty much over. I still enjoy going to the range but with a limit on walking, thus my selling of a lot of items these past few months. I do have a nice 27 foot center console fishing boat that I use a good bit (not much walking on a boat).After much talking with my wife (permission) I decided to get a large jet ski and rig it out for fishing. This way I can go to more areas quicker and cheaper and get into more shallow areas. I thought you guys might like to see it before and after I will put some pics of it when all the riggin is done . rod holders cooler rack arches and gps/chart recorder rack installed. this should make one fine fishing machine. I had my wife set on it to give some size proportion. I sure did one pile of talking on this Yamaha FX HO Cruiser, its a big machine 11 feet long 4 ft 2 inches wide and 835 lbs with a 180hp 4 stroke. I went for one of the biggest on the market for safety reasons . I don't like the idea of rolling this thing over in November it may be a little chilly. I thought you guys might like something a little different tks ken
