Boat Builder Central

I built and own an fs18. I built mine strictly for fishing the creeks around the St.augustine area and for duck hunting(it's narrow and easy to hide) I used to guide on the St.Johns river and there is no way I would recommend the fs18 for that use. Don't get me wrong it is a great boat for it's inte...

I used Dyco safety deck sealed with system 3 clear on my XF20. Held up great and cleaned up very easy. It leaves a pretty aggressive non skid though.

Jim, The water is as high as I've ever seen it. We had well over 20" of rain here last week. The fishing in dunns creek is hit or miss. The bed fishing in the canals off of dunns creek can be real good in the spring time, and if you want to catch big catfish in the summer it's usually dependabl...

Bob, I too ran into the same problem when using auto primer for a guide coat, Even the primer labeled as sandable. I just thought I would let you know that I tried the graphite powder tonight and it worked very well. Thanks for the tip. By the way your boat looks great.

St. augustine and Crescent Beach are my stomping grounds. I'll gladly show you around when you get here. The fishing can be real good here in the summer.The flounder bite has been great the last few years.It's a beautiful city, you'll enjoy it. Brian

I would just like to say thanks to Jason for one heck of a deal. I would also like to say thanks to ken for letting me have it. I will do you both proud on this one.Get ready for one radical xf20.

Let me change that. if ken doesn't take it I can pick it up tomorrow morning.
