As a few of you know I got a full size boat for a steal of a deal. Had a few request for pictures so here they are. I got out to Spanaway today and caught some sun shine.
The boat is a 20.6ft Champion Elite. Its got a 200hp fuel injected Merc. Hot Foot, jackplate, 76# Motorguide and rod lockers that go to the tip of the bow 8+ feet. The boat is mechanically sound if I could change any one thing about it....it would be the single axle trailer on such a long boat. Other wise it is my first bass boat so I'm loving it
edited to add second pic of just the boat for whats his face.

Congrats Daniel!!!!!
I will be heading out to Washington on Tuesday, launching out of Coulon at around 9:30 AM. Let me know if you are interested in joining up with me.
When you think you know it all, its time to quit. Knowledge should be gained on every trip.

NICE Dan! Congrats on the new boat. Looks like a sweet ride. I can see you winning a couple tourneys in that this year.

There is nothing like the feeling you get when you pull into your driveway with your new boat. I loved that feeling when I bought my Hewescraft and brought it home. Congrats to you. That is a very nice boat with lots of room. Well done.

The Ol' Lily Pad lunkers are in trouble now! Nice boat!

Great look'n boat Daniel!
Now you just need to get some die-cut "sponsor" decals of your bait company on it for good advertisement. Heck, you could write off the boat as a business expense.
Instead of trying to convince the wife to let you go wet a line, just tell her you are going to go promote your business.

Nice looking boat!!!Good luck with it.During the winter months what is a good bait or lure to use on bass.Im only familiar with summer bass fishing.
When youre up to your rear end in alligators,its hard to remember that the initial plan was to drain the swamp.
