Let`s bump this back up any new members here also post your pics.

..... how many of us are owners of 170´s or 175´s????
I´ve seen a couple of new arrivals around in the galleries.  Please post if you own one, and let the rest of us know your impressions.
I´ll start:
1985 Osprey 170 with a 1993 Mariner 115.  I love the boat.  It is extremely versatile.  My fishing takes place in Panama, where options abound.  It is easy to trailer and works OK in most conditions, from shallow water to offshore on calm days.....
Only thing I don´t like is the relatively shallow V, which makes it pound a little (or a lot) in headseas.  I read someone on THT, who owns a Genmar made 175 that trim tabs work wonders and make a heck of a difference.  I would love to hear from the knowledgeable experts on our forum.
1977 Aquasport 170

Hey Darkdealer, very nice pics!!!  Our boats are very much alike. Mine is a 1985 model.
