Hi y'all,
My name is Sam, I just purchased a 1986 Aquasport 29 Tournament Master from a good friend of mine. He was ready to move on to some thing else and I was the lucky one he wanted to sell the boat to.
I found this forum pretty easily on a google search and hope to be able to find and share good information.
One of my other boats is a 1970 27ft Chris Craft Commander. I bought it as a project and had many good days on the water with it. The Commander (as great of a boat as it is) is not the right boat for what I am wanting to do but the AquaSport will be great.
I live in north central Texas and the Aquasport is on stands in Port Isabel ready to drop in the water when ever I can make it down south.
I have fished the "Makaira Mojo" several times and was very impressed each time.

Sam, welcome to the club. The 290 was at intro a new design "Pocket Sportfisherman".

 Aquasport's answer to a quality, yet comparatively affordable Sportfish...back then competing with production hulls by Luhrs, Shamrock, Albemarle, Tiara, etc.

Like your Chris too :thumright:

Keep it right here.

Welcome aboard Sam :salut:
 
Nice intro. :thumright:
 
Post some more photos when the time's right and let us know how that large (to many of us) Aqua suites your needs.

Good luck.

Sam,
Great first post, welcome aboard!!  Not only do I love the 29, but the Chris!!  My buddy and I used to run a 27 over in Orlando, I/Bs gutted, twin 75 OMCs...she was the "Mother Ship" for his Ski Nautique.  Damn we had some fun with that boat!! :thumleft:  :thumleft:  :thumleft:

Greetings all, I just joined yesterday and go by the nickname 'dragel'.  I have a 1978 xscape cuddy cabin with deep vee hull, 19' long, purchased in 1982. I've never seen or heard of a similar boat from Aquasport. I found this forum while searching for info on 'xscapes' and judging by what I've read so far, I'm hoping to get lots help here. It needs a transom rebuild and I'm not sure it's something I want to attempt. I'm considering selling it along with the '03 Honda 130 and MagicTilt galv trailer. Other than the rotted transom it's in great shape, just not sure what I want to do. I will try to take some pictures this week-end, as it currently covered, up here in NH.      Great website, dragel

Welcome D1!  The Xscape was a later model for Aquasport - made to compete with the more modern-looking "go fast" crowd (Wellcraft, Baja, Chris Scorpion, etc.) compared to the traditional Aquasport fishing design.  There was even a tri-hull Xscape for a while.  

I'm sure someone will chime in on the relative value of this posting when it excludes images - right guys?
