Re: Anyone Fishing?
We fished Falcon this weekend. Water was low,low,low! But my first fish was a 9 lb Rosie! Beautiful bass, an little thin though. We thought the fish was over 10 lbs when i got it in the boat but 2 boga's don't lie, they both read a hair over 9 lbs. That was it for me for the weekend. We had so heavy...

Re: AtTheBrink's FS-18
Hello, I have read through your thread so far and am very interested in how your boat turns out. I am also looking at the FS18 to build and like the flush deck look. Is this a plan that they offer that you have found or are you going to have to make the changes yourself? A far as the overpower of t...

Re: AtTheBrink's FS-18
Finally was able to get my plywood ordered! It has just been one set back after another... But God smiled on us this week and I should be making sawdust in a week or so.

Re: Curacao CS 25
Bob just looked at your website that boat looks very sharp, what did you use for a nonskid? it looks like it is raised very cool I like it. Hi Peter - the non-skid is called Seadek, there is a similar product called Hydroturf that is a bit cheaper, but the colors are more for the jet ski crowd. It'...
