What type of boats do you guys have, and where do you keep em?

I have a classic 20' 1970 Seacraft Open Fisherman with 140hp I/O Merc , finest kind:D I keep my boat in the South River in Humarock and also in Cohasset Harbor for part of the year.

I have 10 foot mirrocraft with an 8 horsepower johnson engine from the mid-70's. I also have a 5 HP trolling motor and a canoe. Both are located on my lake at my lakehouse.

Oh ya, we have 2 kayaks too.

Those Verado outboards are intense. There was a Fountain factory fishing team in Weymouth Ma a month or so ago that had a boat with triple 275hp Verado's on it. I was checking out the boat and was standing right next to the outboards and couldn't even tell they were running, unbelivable! Bet those things are great on fuel too.

one of my old buddies lives in Jacksonville, he sent me a set of pics from one of the hurricaines, a nice looking Parker in the middle of a busted up road, I wanted to cry :cry:

I've heard they pound a lot, but are setup perfect for the types of fishing I do. The 25's with the dual stations look like a perfect setup, just need to find someone to bring me out in some nasty weather for a sea trial.

We fish the Chesapeake Bay and Off shore. We have two 450 hp Diesels in her and she will cruise at 28 mph. Named " Weekend Hooker" siize
14 feet wide - 37 feet long. It has radar, fishfinder, Gps, radio and Generator to name a few things.

Parkers. There are several at our marina and I have not heard anyone of the owners talk bad about them. They like theirs very well.

Every pot has a cover ,my grandfather said. There are a lot of good boats on the market today. It depends on the type of fishing you do.
