    They are some of the best riding boats ever. The marlin eat out of the exhaust tubes. They put the carolina boats to same when it comes to the ride. Downside, they are wet as hell.

    Fished with ray again this year and he is one amazing captain. Fished in 6-8 ft seas and the HOBO handled it like a champ. Ray is amazing at 86 years young.

    The "Grander" used to be at the yacht club there a couple years back. The only port with 3 whiticars. The island is Walkers that you are talking about in the Bahamas.

    I also believe they made most of there money on liquor importing. I have fished and stayed there a few times and I met the owners. I believe the last name was Abernathy or something like that?Its been 20 years! Too long. Beautiful place walkers. I ran a whitaker up in new jersey way back when called the Buckalot, she was a little slow back then but one hell of a sea boat! Now shes fast as sheit,Last called the boneshaker with more engine.

    Grander

    I worked on the Grander in Montauk. Some of the best fishing days I've ever had were in the cockpit of that 46 Whiticar. To call that boat a fish magnet would be an understatement. 14 giant bluefin trolling clean dead bait off Mass in one day. 8 giants on another day. Simply incredible boat all the way around. Jimmy Grant has her down in Venezuela now catching multiple blue ones every day and she's still raising them like the day she was born.
