A row boat sounds wonderfully problem free! We're all good yeah, now I'm just improving things and doing the final stuff that I never had time for during the actual build. Nice and stress free work, can't wait for the summer! Our local boat show is on at the moment and it always feel like the start of the season, will go on saturday and try not to buy anything.
I honestly did try, but the new to me boat and the new waters keep me learning, we've spent a lot of time jigging for perch with pretty bad results to be honest. But I've got time to learn, in a couple of years I'm sure the results will get better when I start finding the spots, time and gear for these waters.
