Nice "pa-ka" ! I hope the engine clears the bulkhead! Do you plan on bottom paint?

Spring Fever · 07-22-2005, 10:57 PM

Nice Parker...Are you going to keep it at 70 West? If so...I'll see you there.

What size is that?

theduckblind · 07-23-2005, 02:19 PM

It's a 23'...a very roomy 23.

Spring Fever, yeah, it's there at 70 West...very nice place and sooo easy...I love calling ahead and not having to deal with a ramp or trailer issues.

Jay A, it cleared...had a little help. No bottom paint...dry storage.

are you going to pick-up gimbels for the jiggin seats? Nice setup

jbonnet · 07-23-2005, 09:15 PM

NICE!!!!!!!

theduckblind · 07-24-2005, 11:00 AM

Ubetcha, already got 2 gimbels for them.

Spring fever, I love that CC...wow, what a lot of room in the stern and the tackle stations. Maybe we can hook up and pull some lines before long.

I'll be down there next weekend for the DU billfish tournament and probably will be on it Saturday putting some stuff on it.

I'll pm ya my cell.

A new fishing rod is a toy. A new gun is a toy. That ain't no toy! That's a beautimus boat!

theduckblind · 07-25-2005, 10:49 AM

Any special model gimbels I need for those jigging seats...haven't looked at the under side to see if the regular ones will fit or not.

Megabyte · 07-25-2005, 11:00 AM

That ain't just one

...That's a whole bunch!!!

I saw you getting ready to go on Saturday morning. Was thinking to myself what a nice looking boat it was, and thought I saw it on THT.

I sea trialed the GW 232 that is for sale there. Will be back during the weekend to take it back home.

Great looking Parker. A while after you left a Bayliner express got a bilge full of gasoline while fueling, so that caused some excitement for a while. They guessed that the fuel fill hose came off the filler neck and they didn't notice until the bilge pump kicked on.

Nice marina you guys have there. What are those condos under construction going for?

theduckblind · 08-08-2005, 11:03 AM

Thanks GW....lot of room in that boat and she'll top about 43 loaded...love the way it handles - took to 23 miles out yesterday in a 5' seas...we were hoping for calmer water but never found it.

i saw the guys there running with buckets and "cotton balls"...can't believe they didn't notice until the bilge kicked on...then again...saw a guy fill up, leave the nozzle locked on then cut the pump off. Then an attendant came and clicked it on, got sidetracked...you guessed, gas was gushing out. I cut it off - about 4 gallons was spilled.

I haven't the slightest what they'll go for...I moved my boat from there to Portside Marina, about 6 miles closer to the turn basin
