Awesome accomplishment James........adds to the couple that you wired back in the day. To get one on your sled makes it that much sweeter. CONGRATS again. Hopefully I will get to see you in November.

Wound-up has one of the CLEANEST prop washes I have ever seen on a boat of any size............probably why she is such a fish magnet!

thank you Robja, but this wasn't my first Grander...it was my first as a captain and the 'Wound Up's' 1st.....any chance your friend was fishing on the 'Atlantic Spray' w/ Capt. John Whitting ?? if so the fish chocked on a 30# dorado ..they also caught a 40lb 'hoo and a 115lb yellowfin that day....
