This is my lake boat, "Disposable Income II" AKA "Crimson Flyer". It's 20 1/2' of amercian small block V-8 powered fun; 54.9 mph on the GPS with a full load of fuel and 4 on board and it will pass most anything but a fuel dock. I use this for trolling on Duck Lake for fast-mouth bass.

The one in the background is the original "Disposable Income" I've owned that one for 10 years and put many, many hours on it. After I take the troll motor off it, it will be a paddle boat... seized a valve, bent a couple of pushrods, ate a piston and wrecked the block. Looking for a running chevy 3.0 liter 4 cylinder.

Hey Bear,
Even though the engine is shot, I would start with a paint job...

a lot of North River Boats here. Robbo's is a sweet setup. Crazy about the NR boats owner huh. What ever happened to the company afterwards?

That was not a pleasant thing that happened. :x Believe it or not they're still cranking out the boats down in Roseburg. The bank has been running them since the big meltdown and the good guys are still working at the factory.

Nelly, the Crimson Flyer has a brand new 250hp V-8, the boat you can just barely see behind it has the blown motor. Just like a Husky though to paint a boat with a blown motor... all show and no go. :mrgreen:

My boat is a Tracker Proguide V-16. 50 horse Mercury with a Suzie-Q 6hp kicker.
I fish rivers, lakes, Columbia and Snake, and the Sound. I run two Cannon Easy Troll downrigers.
I also use it to pull the kids and grandkids on a ski tube.
Here are a couple of pics.
