Description
Well after a 5 year hiatus, I am a boat owner again! Closed Friday on a 31' Sportcraft. Sold my 27' walkaround in 2008 and knew to get the bigger boat I wanted, it would either take a while to save up enough or take some type of big windfall. Unfortunately the windfall came in the form of an inheritance as my Dad passed away last November, but he would be happy that some of the money went to this!! Now I just can't wait for the stripers to get here.

Congratulations on the new rig. Your Dad would be proud. I am sure he will be smiling down on you as every fish comes over the rail. Good luck with it.

Congrats on your new adventure. Enjoy the upcoming weekend and there after. I know what it's like in regards to your dad. I lost mind a couple of years ago.
I finally just picked up a Grady, something him and I talked about getting. Enjoy it, I think he'd be proud too.
