I'll be buying a flats style in the 20+ range. Used market looks pretty good down there based on what I've looked at.


Flave, if you're in the 20+ range, you've basically left the flats boat realm. 17-19' (or smaller) is typically flats/skiff range. 20+ is considered more of a bay boat... which isn't a bad thing. Flats boats, you're typically talking max 3 adults, and that may not even be a comfortable fit. 2 is better and easier in that size boat. One adult and 2 kids is easier than 3 adults.

One thing you're better off understanding and addressing up front: Where am I going to get my and my peeps' powder skin azzes out of the sun?

Bay boats will have more options for that. T-top or fabric cover, Sunbrella fabric being top of this class. Flats boats, not so much. The tradeoff is manueverablity and access to skinny water, and having easier options to get out of the sun..

My frame of reference: 17' Ranger flats boat for 7 years.

Potentially.


I'm sure you'll be oh so impressed. Most Broward Sheriff's officers can't stand him. They recently gave him a no confidence vote. Problem for them is, he's such a spineless worm, he'll use any bullschit reason to sack those that speak out publicly against him.

He is (possibly soon to be, was) the perfect little Ken doll for the Broward liberal elites.

Dirt,

To be honest I was just trying to engage in polite conversation. I have no intention of buying a boat. I'm just going to become your best friend.

The very best boats are someone else's, like ex-wives.

Hadn't noticed the Broward County part until now. Whereabouts in Broward County will you settle or is that decided yet? I was born at Broward General Hospital and went to school at Nova High. But that was a few (ahem) years ago and the place has changed almost beyond recognition since then.

True that, but nobody's going to loan Clark their boat. Travis is going to have to buy his own.

I believe our rental is right between Miramar and Pembroke.

Boy are you a rookie. You don't borrow the boat. If you do that you have to launch it, retrieve it, drive it, clean it, blah, blah, blah.

You just provide great companionship and buy beer and gas. Much easier and cheaper.

PS-Keep this between you and I. Thanks.

There is some truth in that, unless of course your boat is so superior to the competition the chicks are free. Fella could leave an hour after everyone else, fill the cooler and be back for lunch. High speed trolling anyone?

My other boat was a Hewes Bonefisher.

Yes, I went both ways.

Oh, okay, the white trash district.


wink

Just kidding. That's about even with Hollywood on the east. Those were fairly upscale neighborhoods right on the edge of the Glades back when, not uncommon to find alligators sunning in the back yard. Still has a ton of small lakes and ponds everywhere. Good luck down there, but from your Montana pics I get the idea you make your own luck wherever you end up.

Flave, no problem on the boat. You'll get one when you're ready. Actually, OPBs (other people's boats) would be wise in the first year.
