Gradywhite273, Flatbottom, OC boat Show Adventure

[flatbottom]

We arrived in Style as always. Whew it was a long ride Graywhite273 driving 1.5 hrs to Flatville and then 2 hrs to PinoLand. We were parched , after the long drive. SO !!! It was a short stop at the local "7 thieves" for a beverage. Then of course nature calls, this always happens at the wrong time It was a quick pino stop...fast

Ahhhh !!!!!! was all I heard for the next 3 miles and It is cold out there Flat This is going to be a great show

Off to the parking grid near the show. The lot was filled with many type sleds. Grady had an idea !!!! One of the many, during the 3.5 hr trip down. A hood ornament for the 61 Viking? Now color was an issue..... Maybe a new tow behind tender? Size and weight were tossed around........ What ever smoked his gears, Gradywhite273 was boat hopping/shopping the sleds.

The Lot was packed with circling patrons looking for the best parking spot. Some stopped where they could. Others to get exposure. Then in front of us lies the Centre...

Flat get him out of the Scarab quick...just because it matches his jacket is no reason....the question is does it match the Viking...

Walking the ground level we passed many, shiny sleds. Most in the CC flavor. Great looking boats. Prolines, Parker, Key West, Panga. Back bay sleds, coastal sleds, and a sled, that just clicked a light on. A platform for snapping pics almost was hitched to the Tundra. Gradywhite273 had a call to Miami that never connected We waited and waited Of course it could be used for many events in the future of Sportfishermen.com She had comfy cushions, pivoting helm and deck chairs, fridge to hold the day lunch, portable head, sun shade for the unbearable summer sun, 360 fishing or picture taking platform. I asked Gradywhite273, "who could use" a sled of this caliber? His first response was "admin" !!!!!. Perfect choice I noted. The prices were astonishing with great show rebates. The Idea was the best of the day...so far Admin will be so pleased to hear this great news. I think this is just what he has been waiting for

We have the literature brochure, price list, and options. The show sled was decked out, in so, not much more than radar is needed.

SquidNation was not hard to find. "Just look for the crowd", one gentlemen said. Weaving our way through the patrons we see Nick. He was working his butt off while Bill was .......... peddling squid. The new box of matanza's were on Gradywhite273's shoulder. This was a feat of its own. Driving 3.5 hours without Gradywhite273 taking a peek in the box. Someone must know him well. That box was sealed with triple duct tape albright knots Immediately I start the cheer. "Get your Matanza Here". Well low and behold ...a woman pops up and inquires about a certain lure. She winked at Bill, smiled at Nick, bumped Grady, and hid her face at the camera angle. Grady bumped me and the shot missed fired. She did buy the lure, but claimed it was for her husband
