It does look like a coho because its scales are falling off, but thats because it is a SUPER fresh chrome hen pink. But its not a coho, too similar to the other hen there, just fresher.

9/4/2011 8:46:00 AMi have had this 8 ft achilles for 10 years, i kept it at my 33 ft boat in mexico, it cost so much fuel to run the big boat i fished the rubber boat most the time, ihave been 15 miles out of la salina in this and caught limits of tuna, i have caught mako shark, yellow tail, every rock fish and halibut. with the 3 hp and extra fuel she has always got me home safe, the worse time was the mako shark put some holes in one side and i got home half inflated, i was about 5 miles out. i love my rubber boat , it has been the best boat i have had as far as catching fish, i wouldn,t recomend going out to sea as i have, i was a world class speedway motorcycle racer so i don,t have to many smarts left lol but for those of you with rubber boats it works great on the river, little longer ride back to the dock but it will get you out where you need to be, i have a fish finder, anchor,air horn, life vests and oars. so if you have a peice of shit boat like mine use it to catch fish but remember to have safety gear. i also carry extra fuel as my 3 hp has a small tank. see you on the river today and tomarrow

9/4/2011 9:51:00 AMyou have to be safe when offshore, i also had hand held cb radio so i could listen to the weather as you know it can jump up at any time and turn lumpy. also had fares. i know its kinda nuts going that far in a rubber boat but i loved the thrill and the fishing.
