Sorry been awhile since I have updated. I came in contact with an old family friend the guy who when I was a kid took my dad, brother, and I fishing for the first time on a boat. A week later my dad owned a boat and I have loved fishing ever since.

Well with that said he gave me his boat!!! A crestliner 1850 sportfish!!! In perfect condition and meticulously taken care of! I am still in disbelief and could never thank him enough!

now you take him fishing

I know, I am still in disbelief!


To my surprise my wife told me to finish and keep it. She told me I worked to hard on it to just get rid of it.

My wife, dad, and kids joined me on the maiden voyage of the new boat it was a blast!

I attached a photo of me driving then my dad and kids. My wife said no pictures of her lol

I hope you all are doing good! Sorry it has been awhile since I posted.

I could not justify another summer in the garage when the new boat is running fantastic! I also got my fishing lure company officially up and running so it has been busy!

I went back through my sea ray and I plan on pulling the motor back out to fix the oil leak and then put it back in. Other than that I plan on rerouting my filler pipe and making her look pretty again!
