Need a Boat?

[Mattedhead]

Post here if you are looking for a boat or if you have space on your vessel for other tournament divers.

Don't limit yourself to these choices...these are just some of the boats that have competed in the tournament before.

We went out on the Good Times after our boat decided it didn't want to play anymore. Capitan Andy was great and I think we all had a really good time. pun intended :D

Edit: I think Ren and crew are hooking up with Capt Andy again so it might be a full boat.

[Searen]

Capt Andy is open I'll be bringing the new sled.

[kjflyfish]

You gonna have that thing done in time? Good on ya, mate!

[Azorian Spear]

Sled??????????????????

[Mattedhead]

I heard about the sweet new ride Ren....Did you decide on twins or the 350? Either way CONGRATS!!!

[Searen]

Single 300hp. Less fuel consumption and I don't feel the need for speed. I bet it will still run great and on a good day I will still cruise @ 27knots. It's a good day on the water if you can cruise @ 22knots. I'm I going to have it done, this thing will be done by the middle of this month.
Matt, the Wilmington Taliban talk like they aren't doing the tournament this year yet you're leading the forum?
Oh, I have added a few photos to show my progress on my new sled(ride, boat).

[kjflyfish]

You need to scratch off the "thru" and put on "Ren". That thing is going to be so cool!

I plan on being there that weekend - I'm a relative newbie and will probably enter just for the experience, but I have a boat with space for several. If anybody wants to throw in for gas, let me know and we can set something up.
Also, even though I live a few hours away, the boat lives near Oregon inlet and I will probably be there any weekend with decent weather. Give me a shout any time with a few days notice, not just the tournament weekend.

Boat is a 27' Maycraft Pilothouse w/ twin 225 4st Suzukis...

[Mattedhead]

Ren-
I'm just trying to help Mark out...I'll be in Mexico from 07/4-07/20 so I won't be able to make it. The boat is looking great!!!

BK393-
Very gracious of you!

[bk393]

thanks Matt - I figure I have all that extra deck space, might as well bring somebody that knows more about all this than I do so I can pick their brains a little. Really a little more boat than I need, but I was going way too far out in my old 19' single engine CC than safety or sanity allowed for...

[Mattedhead]

If you are ever heading out and short a diver let me know...I'll hop in the truck in a hurry. I have a good many numbers for the area and have put a fair bit of time in the water up there.

Take care-
Matt

[bk393]

Thinking seriously about heading down this weekend actually... the weather's a little sketchy but I can't stand these mountains much longer...

[VoodooDaddy]

bk393, nice boat bro. Is that a cutting board on the near side rail there? Is that a 28' boat?

[bk393]

Thanks! It's 27' actually, but the prev. owner added the bow pulpit so who knows really...

Yeah it's one of those rodholder gimbal mounted things that was pretty much useless - I tore the gimbal off and used it for a gas grill.. much bigger benefits from the grill than that rickety cutting board.... If I can figure out how to keep weiners from rolling off into the ocean I'll be in good shape.

My buds and I would love to join you in the near future up there. PM me and we can get going on planning it out. This weekend is bad for we're hitting up the caymans the 27th thru the 5 of may so after that we should really keep a close eye on a window in the weather.

[hatterasfreedvr]
