    I had a 3.2 Keelowcraft jet boat for a while but sold it and bought a Stabicraft 1550 fisher a couple years ago as a easy to beach launch, light to tow inshore fishing and diving boat. So easy with the kids, can tow it anywhere. Quite a versatile little boat that’s got us into some cool spots.

    its a tale of ages and preparedness... i was a young green boatie (12 months ago) and he was an old salt.....

    there was music most touching.....

    he broke a fuel line and we went fishing then towed the broke ass bastard back as we were coming back to port...... useless tit didnt even have an aux mount so i couldnt even loan him fuel and an engine.

    ive since sold my boat and i hear that the tit still hasnt bought an aux motor.
