    That's pretty much what we're looking for, but tough to find locally.

    Well, I sold my 18ft. Regal to my neighbor. Bought a 2008 Polar 2100cc. Can't wait. It's down in West Palm and I'm going to get it as soon as the trailer gets here. I had to order a new trailer because this did not have one. Anyway, my first cc. I started on a bowrider so I am excited to try the cc.

    I used to do a lot of camping on our boat as a kid (34ft Larson) and miss it, this may get you wanting a 30+ foot CC :D

    Sold my little project boat today, my uncle was looking for a hull like I had and he already had a old 50 horse outboard to put on the hull so I'm gonna look at getting a ready to go boat since I don't really have time to build one anyway.

    I found a 16' Carolina skiff with a 50hp Suzuki outboard and trailer, looks to be in pretty good shape and the guy only wants 3,400 for it.

    lol well I may have jumped the gun a little early on the polar...dude backed out. Must have got a better offer or something but hey sometimes things happen for a reason. I pulled the trigger on a tidewater 20ft. Carolina bay and picked it up Saturday. Took it out on Monday for its maiden voyage and could not be happier. Boat rides like a Cadillac compared to my old 18ft bow rider. I love this boat. It's a 2013 and has a yami 150 4 stroke. great little boat.

    since falling in love with my fiends 23' sea hunt, i know what i want.
    but since it isnt in the cards now or the near future, this is what i have.

    just a 1436 tracker topper i bought new last year, and finally got around to doing a few things.

    motorguide 55lb v2 bow mount (fixed their design flaw but if it breaks again, its gone for a minn kota)
    old min kita 35lb transom mount til i get my engine
    carpeted some plywood so you dont burn your butt, conduited all the trolling motor wires, and put some horse stall matting
    in to level out the floor. i think this will hold up better that wood would have any day.

    its just a little pond hopper that i hope to take canal fishing for flatties once i get the engine.

    oh wait wait wait.........sorry i was dreaming again.

    here is mah booooaht (forrest gump voice)

    before the flooring:
    13580540_1060935110652324_26300227021225119_o.jpg

    after the flooring:
    13613263_1061551987257303_5225652305568813063_o.jpg

    nothing special.

    Sea hunt is a great boat. I think they are the same company that makes tidewater boats. Hull designs are similar with the Carolina flare. Either way sea hunt is a nice boat. What did you do the floor with on that Jon boat? Looks great!

    Build thread in sig...
    anyone have an outboard motor they're looking to get rid of for a few hundred bucks? I've got a local hookup that I'd love to impulse buy an Addictor Mini Boat hull from, but it's missing a motor. looking for something between 10 and 40 horse power. no tiller controlled.

    here's what an Addictor Mini Boat is......
