    Inshore/Jetty fishing:

    1970's Aquasport Flatback.
    - I'd like to do a full flat front and rear deck for creek fishing and trolling motor and do a tower for spotting tarpon on the beach. Boat will get in less water than a lot a bay boats adn will fish the beaches Great.

    Offshore:
    Topaz - like a 37 or 39....love the lines these boats and think they would be unreal with some nice Cummins power.

    31' Bertram is my all time favorite.
    15' Whaler is my small boat favorite.
    The hull on both of these boats are something special.

    28 Bertram converted to outboards...

    I convert 28' bertrams to twin 225 4 stroke and 250 e-tek outboards. with a custom bracket, 42 gallons of water, 200 gallons of fuel, storage for days of fishing, a flybridge that you can see from and seats 4 people, runs 32 - 28 knots, has a long day bench where the old caffeteria seating used to be and a real head. The boats are sexy, economical, fast and easy to re-build. ours is a 1973 and we use the heck outta her.
