Love those boats

How do you like the boat and what kind of speed do you get out of it

I thought real seriously about buying that boat. I love inboards. Post some more pics when you get a chance!

Thanks tprice and billh1963. I love the boat. It is not fast. It scares 30. Cruise is about 23-24. It has a ford 351 and gets 3 mpg at cruise. I could get more speed but I am trying to stay with range. It has an 85 gal tank so a 60 mile stream trip out of Charleston is doable but barely. I am saving my pennies to get a radar from BOE. I have a 7 inch Furuno sounder and a 7 inch Garmin GPS. Until I learned the trim tabs it handled like a pig and very wet. Without tabs that hull would be awful.

Boats are built like a brick shthouse

Best of luck with it.

Oniell, good luck with your 'Fish'. I've had a 1989 'Fish" for 2 years and love it. Great ride with dependable inboard power.
