170 underway again
« on: September 03, 2013, 06:57:42 AM »
Well after sitting since 08, i have spent countle hours scrubbing and cleaning and flushing and the old 170 was back on the water thisweekend. Sat and Sun. Took the wife and 22 month old to the lake. Anchored up in a cove and caught enough bream that we all got tired of casting.

Best eating fish on the planet, and one of the best boats too. My 175 is a 19998. A good year too.

Lake was super rough being labor day weekend. My buddy has a ranger bass boat and we passed him doing about 27 and when i asked if he was ok he simply said he couldnt get over about 25 without fearing for his safety. We were high and dry.

Hard to beat the 170s - too many plusses.
