My new ride.
Here she is  :
23 foot Super Vee
I've had her out a couple times now getting blood in it but forgot the camera and then today I had it but it was so wet none of them turned out becuase the lens was all fogged up.
I'd like to thank Steven's and Alumaweld for the awesome service and building me such a nice ride. She runs and fishes like a dream, I [img]graemlins/hearton.gif[/img] her.
Book a trip and see how she does :smile:

Re: My new ride.
Beautiful Boat David! Hard to beat the clean lines and openess of a SuperVee! I like that bank-sticker diamond plated front end. Must be nice for jammin' into shore for pickups and protecting against anchor dings.
Thanks again for your input the other day, I appreciate it.
Keep that craft loaded with fish and payin' customers! I wish you the best!

Re: My new ride.
Sweet ride DJ, you have made me envious once again :grin: . You're gonna donate your "old" boat to the Steelie Ben foundation right?!? :grin: :grin: Hope to be seeing the inside of her in the future. Thanks for the pics.

Only thing I could suggest is maybe going with a longer and deeper model next time to accommodate more advertising. Looks like you might have run out of space. :grin:

Beautiful Ride....I love it! :smile: :smile:
Make sure you have lots of insurance. I got $101.00 for my boat at the scrap yard (after the fire). :depressed: :depressed: ...read your insurance policy closely to make sure you have coverage in a house fire. [img]graemlins/1zhelp.gif[/img] fishrite

Re: My new ride.
Thank you for all the great comments.
This boat is very stable and smooth, it tracks great and it gets up on step in not more than one or two boat lengths.

Ammerman,
Male and Female boats are easy to tell apart. The males have props and the females have jet ports. :grin: :grin: .
Dave nice boat and I'm sure it's a girl.
