The “Hawk” version of PEI

[Capt Hawk]

With a three month old baby at home my wife doesn’t like me traveling too far so I had to do my own version of “PEI” fishing! Am I really missing out on a great trip or should I just stick to fishing my own boat?
It taped out at 109”/820#

send that picture to Mac, probably a Carolina Classic world record! I know Eric put a 7-something on the deck before I owned the boat; The biggest on my boat was 91" and 4-500# and that was a "never again" moment for me..

So --- how the hell do you get a 9' 800# fish into a CC cockpit? How did she run on the way in?

nice job - that's an awesome picture!

I have a block and tackle attached to the upper tower near the buggy top. I will try to attach the pick of it. Even with the head all the way up the tower the two of us had a hard time pulling the tail end into the cockpit and lowering it into the blanket. The boat ran its regular cruise speed in (29 knots) with no problem but the transom was sitting deep.
