What year is the boat? How many hours are on the engines? Do you have any pics of the aft area of the boat, from the leaning post back? I'd like to have an idea of how much room you have with the engine cover.
Thanks...

Hi Capt,

Boat is 1977. It was redone in 2001. This is my third year with the boat. There isn't any hour gauge. I put about 300-350 hrs on it since I've had it.

I just took some pics of the back engine cover area. She's still dirty from some work I did the other day. I'll post them to the web album as soon as it syncs from the phone.

The cover doesn't allow someone to walk around but I find' it makes a great casting platform/prep area.

Yeah. I do love this boat. I want something with a decent cabin (2 young kids) that still fishes well. The grady gulfstream and islander seem to fit the purpose. Though I'm having a hard time finding something worthwhile in my price range.

Think I may wait a bit and enjoy what I have, it's a great ride and I've put a lot into her.

Get a bow dodger for the kids & call it good. Much easier to keep clean, and just drop it down for better fishing. It will be hard to beat the quality of ride in that size range.

Your probably right, a dodger and a few bean bags would help out but i got it in my head now to get something more comfortable for us.
