Thanks Tim,
I'm super pumped. I've had 24 ft sailboats and a bayliner lake boat before so this will be my 1st time with ownership on a saltwater motorboat. My buddy has had several deep sea boats, that we have been fishing for 10+ years, so I'm comfortable fixing boats and being out to sea but ownership is a new form of excitement (and dread).
Need to re-glue the seam, apply new top coat and then sand and repaint the bottom and she'll be good as new. Putting a new nav light and a new 60 inch stern light on also.
Got a handheld waterproof UHF, fish finder and a live bait well that came with the boat also so that helps.
Picked up the last few things I needed for my 5 lobster hoops and replaced the bands on my 3 band speargun also. Mounting pole holders and working on putting together a bimini above the cockpit. Looks like there was one on there before but just the mounts are left.
Sorry I'm rambling... Little excited.
