Couple of quick pix before the party. Fishing was great today, but too many things were out of season including the non existent reds that we caught nearly 30 of, and they were not small......
Now that you have your toy your wife is gonna need something in return. May I suggest a home theater. I will set her up with the best Fiber Optic lighting and LED lighting and an introduction to the Finest theater designers in Florida. lol I'm just sayin

Amen Brother....I am sure she is smiling as well...awesome thread and thoroughly enjoyed ll of your add ons and your dock is the absolute bomb....I read the whole thread second half while UT was getting throttled by VT......My wife loved the Ice Machine idea and asked me why I couldn't come up with something like that....told her to keep shoveling ice and golf carting to the dock! Happy New Year to all and best wishes for the New Year full of Red Snapper cause you found the only spot for em!!!!!
The last time I went fishing we went 90 miles out to 200' only to catch and release dozens of Red Snappers and burn through all our bait trying to catch anything but a Red Snapper. They were all big fish also 18/20 lbs.
Hey Detour, I can't thank you enough for inviting us to fish on this awesome machine yesterday. From reading the posts, I consider myself to be one of the lucky ones to run 55 miles offshore aboard "The Office." Everytime I look at the pics of the Red Snapper, it makes me wanna cry that we had to throw all those "endangered" fish back. Oh well, we will settle for some Blackened grouper. Thanks again for an awesome fishing day and Have a Great New on "The Office."
Detour, let me see if I get this right since it was a long read but such a great one as the sun was rising.
You go out to your boat house and probably tell the ice machine "fill the boat with ice please" then go inside and try for a good night sleep. You then get up in the morning tell the ice machine "Thank you for the ice" and lower your boat back into the awesome drink. You then proceed to prep the boat for departure and leave your dock while the wifey is waving saying "have a nice day at the office honey"!! You go out and work your butt off all day in the office enjoying every minute of it and head home. You get to your boat house raise the boat out of the drink and sit on the dock there BBQ'ing your hard work and drinking cold ones as the sun sets.
Im guessing my only question is are you hiring??
All aside awesome looking piece of machine. She looks good and sounds like she runs as you expected. Awesome job on the ice machine I am going to be looking at my slip today wondering how the hell I am wiring one of those up without the marina getting mad...
Thank you for the detailed pictures and the thread, absolutely awesome.

Everything but the wife part, she stays inside and says goodbye, it is down in the 60's right now.
The barbecue typically takes place on another day as the filleting takes a while if things went right.
