Friends of mine have the 38 ZR w/ 700's - it's a beautiful boat that rides like it's on rails. You should enjoy it quite a bit!
Actually Craig, yes. The incorporation of Ft. Myers Offshore, Inc. !! Very close now as lawyer has everything he needs. It has been a lot of work since we will be a non profit.
I am afraid I have allowed the offshore boating world to take over my life...... but I'm enjoying it.

I test drove the 38 ZR w 700's at the St. Pete's poker run. Great poker run boat.

Bob

Hey Sean. Test rides in Ontario mid July to Sept. I just went with stock 525's. I like the idea of regular gas being available anywhere. Easy to maintain, warranty, stock parts etc.

Hey , Tom. Could be true but I have to say I am not disappointed in the NT Yanmar package so far.
See you on the water.

2 - 50 ft boats is a lot to look after. Whoever buys old Predator will not be disappointed. That has been the most awesome boat I have ever owned. But it's time to move on.
The 38 ZR will be a fun boat and easy to look after.
I expect I will leave the Donzi in Canada and keep as a fresh water boat and after this summer the new NT will be based in FL. Saves trucking back and forth in spring and fall.

Hey there, good thinking Bob. The NewArk is posted at 2 bucks per, Cambell's is at 1.58 and I gotta think Sandfiel will be somewhere in between. Even that "little" donzi is gonna make some Muskoka Marina operators wery happy at fill up time.

Should be a nice all round reliable poker runner for sure. I look forward to that test drive.

Bob, Congrats again!!! Very happy for you! Hope to see you soon because I know I owe you some brews for helping me and answering my questions about navigation from Key West to Marco last couple years.
