    Funny I’m in Australia and two months ago I bought a Glastron GS219 imported from America and have done what you’re doing I bought site unseen as it was only 25k with 150 hrs,she was filthy dirty but after a week of cleaning she’s a peach love it soooo happy

      @davidstevenson9633 26 днів тому +1

      @ I bought it from a broker who was selling fro someone who had it imported over so I don’t know mate but I think it would be expensive now with the Aussie dollar being so low

Interested to know if you plan to flip a few boats until you get into something bigger that's more of a live on board type of situation or has your time in Miami changed your plans?

    As a Floridian, bananas are not allowed on my vessel and I make that very clear. Swear everyone who has never heard of it thinks it's BS but it is very real. Learned my lesson when I went fishing with my father and grandfather down in the keys and my grandfather brought bananas on the boat and everything that could go wrong went wrong. Weather got rough and we got tossed around like rag dolls and got seasick, the depth finder failed, we could not find the fish, and we lost a hat when we were on plane running back inland. This was about 13 years ago and from that moment on we learned our lesson.

      Not true at all. I bottom fish 50/60 miles off the coast of SC (out of Charleston) on my 20ft Scout Sportfish all the time. Will def get out there and back faster on a larger vessel but its not "necessary" to head out for the day

    • @BrandonGross

    • @trez2187
      @trez2187 25 днів тому

      @BrandonGross You bet your arse I do. Won't hurt to run a kick ass ad online. Put it in for $38K and drop it $1k/wk until you get nibbles. If you get a serious buyer, you better get it professionally detailed. Someone who can wet sand it and buff the shit out of it. Add like a half inch pinstripe above the black stripe to give it some color. Hope I'm helpful?
