Thanks gentlemen! I am glad to be back and strangely enough I missed this place. 😁. Through the years you get to “know” the personalities here and 99% of those personalities belong to good men with opinions and insight I value. I’ll get the pictures figured out because I OWE Kamo a post on the Stubbs world tour thread. 👍
I forgot to mention that at 51 years old I finally quit chewing (tobacco, not in general 😁). I started around 16 and chewed pretty constantly since then. It’s my only major Vice but since I don’t like being told what to do I figured I had better quit on my own before I was told that I HAD to because of cancer. I’m healthy as a horse but I know that chewing was one activity that could change that status so 2 months ago I woke up one morning and told my wife that’s it for me a chew….and it was, DONE! Knowing that quitting tobacco can increase ones weight I made a few minor dietary changes, I swapped milkshakes for homemade berry protein shakes and I dropped 10 pounds (exactly what I wanted to lose) in 2 weeks. Keeping my weight between 210-220 is where I like to be so at 6’2” and 215 I feel good.
I’m more interested in seeing pictures of you, instead of any dang boat. Thanks, AKPENDUDE ps Dick pix preferred. lmao 🤣 Ace might have missed all the good posts from AKPENISDUDE while he’s been away. Ace’s be thinking, Beav has lost his mind. 🦫

Good to have you back.
Those of us fighting the good fight in Warshington will hate to lose you, but totally understand.
Glad everyone survived and is on the mend.
Boat sounds great!
Regards, Bob.

I'm glad you're back.
What a story-- the ruptured appendix can easily take you away and I'm glad that got pretty much cleaned up. Covid can, too. Wow, what a Spring/Summer!

Glad you and yours are doing good and glad too see you back!

I also had a love affair with chewing tobacco, quitting without killing someone was one of my accomplishments in life. Glad to see you back Aces!

I'm sure glad the family slid through all this and are doing better.
As to the Bayliner 2352...does it have a trailer? If you forget it when you move north, tell me where it is you forgot it. They're a great configuration for medium to big lake fishing. I snoozed on a 2552 in good shape for $10K a year ago. It was bigger than I'd like to tow. The 2352 isn't too big. What engine?
Again, it's great to have you back!

L2S Thanks again everyone! 👍 L2S, it has a Mercruiser 350 that was rebuilt last year and less than 80 hours on it currently. I regret this stuff got in the way of our potential fishing meet up but like I have said before….once I get things figured out up north I’d like to host some some friends from the‘Campfire. I had a new oil pressure sending unit installed as well as new exhaust flappers. Other than a couple of AGM batteries that’s all she “needed”. I did have a “new style” Scotty downrigger plug go out the other day so I’ll have to replace that (for the pot puller mostly). 😁. I have a backup plug on alligator clips just for Murphy moments like that. I also switched to 4 blade (same pitch) props and won’t ever see the need to switch back. I picked up an easy 6 mph at cruise and dropped the RPM’s. Ohh…I added a Honda 8hp kicker. This boat will be going up for sale soon. I have the 33, a 20’ Duckworth that I’m re-powering from I/O Hamilton Jet to an outboard prop, a 16’ Boston Whaler (tender towed behind the 33) that will get the Evinrude 60hp 2 stroke replaced with a new 4 stroke before going up and a 14’ Sea Nymph skiff that I use the hell out of. Those are the used boats that will make the trip north since each serves a main function as well as tertiary functions. The outboards will be the same (make) so that we can standardize from the start. We’ll eventually order a new 20-24’ covered aluminum boat (or new power)(like Hewes, Raider or RiverHawk). For a dedicated run and gun sport fisher I don’t want a glass boat and I want dual outboards. 👍

Man you all are obsessed with me.
Free rent in your heads is a beautiful thing. I can’t imagine being so obsessed with another man but whatever, I’ll take that free rent.
