Nick Gibson Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 We purchased a new boat this weekend that would handle some larger waves. It needs cleaning and some rigging work. It came with four poles downriggers and cannon balls. It is a hard top in good shape. Needs a good buffing job but looks pretty nice. Two of the older walker downriggers and a smaller dog house. Auto pilot and fish finder hope fully we can get the auto pilot to work! Canvas to keep us warm when it cools of And a bait station for running meat rigs and stuff. We need to put some rod holders on it and replace some seals but it is ready to go. We also need suggestions for names:grin::grin::grin:
flyman013 Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 Nice Boat. Plenty of room to fish. I love the bait station. Looks like you could clean your catch there and have a nice on boat lunch!
Nick Gibson Posted July 14, 2009 Author Posted July 14, 2009 Yeah plenty of room it is big jump from our 17' Sea Nymph Out board taking up a lot of space. Yeah we could probably clean the fish there to and have a good lunch on the boat.
2UNREEL Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 Great Lakes Special There. Nice boat. Set it up and get her ready....

GLF Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 Looks like you will stay alot drier now. Nice looking rig Kevin and Nick!
j1musser Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 She looks like a fishing machine. Downriggers on is great start now you just need tracks, and trees, and holders, and ......... she will be set up perfect just the way you want, not someone elses. Nice rig! Making me jealous.
anthonyyost Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 Nice boat guys, that looks like the same autopilot that I have on my boat that I had to do a little tinkering on. If you have any questions, maybe I can be of help.
Just Hook'n Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 Nice rig nick. I see your relation even has to beg for a trip. HA.I also see you have joined the bayliner group. We take a lot of crap from the sea ray guys, but they fish just fine. I like the hard top. Perhaps you can play off that concept with the name. Something like "Hard Headed".
Vitalidle Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 Sweet! Those old trophy's are nice boats. I wish I had a hardtop sometimes:p
NO MO BEGGEN Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 how about nick-of-time. nice lookin boat came just in the nick of time lol . fishins goin to get good here soon
trollperchsand? Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 You will love the hard top, I was going back and forth when I was making my purchase and am so glad I went that direction. As far as the boat name, you retired the Sea Nymph so, "Retired Nympho"
A-Fishy-Anado Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 We fished a derby this weekend out of the same boat. The hard top was very nice with the winds. Only problem is that i am 6'1 and was not used to the boat and have a knot on my eye and a couple on my head from the hardtop. We also used most of my gear on the boat and my leads were to long for this boat being that there is so much hard top on this boat. A longer net would have helped as well....just something to think about. I think this boat can be a very effective weapon with the proper rigging. Nice find guys!!!
[email protected] Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 I had the same boat for four years and loved everything about it except the 350 Chevy Volvo engine when gas was real high. Didn't have a kicker, but that motor trolled all day with no problems. Kept it docked at Dunkirk Harbor, N.Y. and slept on it during fishing tournaments. Good luck and enjoy.....
N II Deep Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 I would go with "primary residence" nice rig
