Stopped in there today to get a part for my trailer.
Could not believe the Skeeter in the showroom!!
I am not a fan of Skeeters...not sure why.
Man, what a rig!!! You can fish 3-4 guys on the front deck!!! Or land planes!
It had a 250 4 stroke Yammy on the back...looked like a the size of a refrigerator!!
Wow! Can't imagine fishing out of that. I'm not even sure I'd want to launch it anywhere in Ct.
I didnt ask the price....had to be 60K
Nice guys over there too!! |

You were probably looking at the new FX-21 series. You guessed right about $67,000.00!

Can you imagine making a payment on that in the middle of February!! Holy crap.
I'm still amazed on the size of the front deck. Seriously you can fish three guys easily!!! |

Not if pointing dog is on the front deck!!!!!!!
Have you ever seen the front deck of his boat while fishing a tournament?
WOW!!!
There are rods and baits everywhere, they are cris crossed all over the place, and it looks like a game of pick up sticks!!!!
The new Nitro Z9's are the same way. They even have a padded front deck, meaning under the carpeting. Really sweet, but way way out of my price range too.

Gary, it's that cluttered and he never steps on any of them? He must be very light on his feet!

There have been a few bent guides over the years, but no losses as I remember.

Lucky man!! I for one don't like doing that many on deck because I always manage to kick one rod into the abyss at the most opportune time when I am fighting one to the boat.
