1986 19' Atlantic rebuild

[fallguy1000]

I know this is a purpose built boat but I keep thinking you are going to have an interesting ride in any sort of weather.
I like it as you will have a ton of working room.

What is that boat geared toward ?

What is that boat geared toward ?

Way back in his first post:

"I am an owner/operator charter captain who fishes full time, as well as commercially but have marked off time after bluefin tuna fishing full-time to rebuild this boat. This will remain a work boat and will be used for commercial fishing as well as duck hunting."

Thanks Hank. So what type of commercial fishing?

Engine is hung. Yea, forward console is tough when its rough

Very cool. Still curious what and how you fish that boat.

Congrats.

Really a jack of all trades. The well is traditionally designed for hauling gill or “runaround” style nets out and in off the transom. Also, an “h” frame can be added to pull a shrimp net off the stern. With the seachest, possibilities to keep large amounts of livebait aboard is available with above deck livewells. Likewise, being on the forward console helps navigating in shallow water by bringing more weight toward the bow, as well as visually aids in seeing schools of fish.
