Wow. that is incredible. With all the money you spent I would take the graphic designers advice and at least get some additional looks for the name on the side. The stock typeface seems too understated for that ridiculously awesome boat.

I looked at some of the custom applications that the company he recommended had done, and they were truly eye popping, jaw dropping detailed works of art.
I wanted something that was nice but not over the top. I want the boat to speak more for itself, rather than have an over the top wrap. Make no mistake, those graphics were awesome, this is just one area that I am a little more tame in.
Seriously Detour. How hard is it to sleep at night knowing that is your boat?
I could not sleep. Seriously.
I tell you no lies, I have been edgy, excited, pacing, thrilled, down, up, all waiting and anticipating delivery. I have schemed out many far flung trips to remote and unfished (in my mind) waters, going over charts planning daytrips, overnighters, family trips, you name it. Then I come out of the self induced trance this puts me in and realize I still don't have the boat....
It is nothing but impatience, the guys at YF are really doing a good job of not letting my exuberance push them into doing anything other than making it right. I am working very hard at controlling myself, and not whining like a spoiled 3 year old. Sometimes I don't do so well.....
So far as sleep, normally about 1 AM after I have poured over the new posts at THT 2-3 times, looked at my pictures until my eyes don't focus right, and am exhausted enough to fall asleep.

No lie.
Dude I know exactly what you mean. I have been through it and honestly it has came to the point where I cannot stand it. Honestly the wait is the worst part. It becomes an obsession.
I find when I am waiting on something my "happy pills" go away much quicker!
Seriously dude. I don't see how you are doing it! Hopefully it will not last much longer!

Dayum.....no expense spared! Looks like you put every bell and wistle on that rig that you could fit.
So we all know you are spending big coin on this beautiful rig, but please tell us how much...or at least a ball park.
Also.....what boat are you moving out of to move into this one?
So far as the boat I am moving out of it is a 1999 37 Diesel EC with a 14' beam that has been rigged for fishing. I really enjoy the boat has lots of amenities, but cruises at 23 knots. It fishes four anglers exceptionally well.
So far as cost goes, my wife reads these threads too, I think I am paying about $25,000 for it......

I think he meant the boat, not the anchor.
