    Barbara B update by Bill Blount

    I bought her in 2005 from a commercial contractor in Jacksonville Fla. She was the named the Final Draw then. He had done alot of upfitting but no motors. I repowered her with C18's Cats with Delta T's, put new coveringboards, took the tower off and redid the hardtop and put in new electronics just to mention a few things. I saw the boat being built in the early eighties and fell in love with her then. My sons and I have been blessed to have been able to fish this awesome machine built by a class boat builder, fisherman and gentleman. She is without a doubt the best riding and fishing boat I have every been on.
