love this boat

[Irish Rover]

Well this Aquasport is everything I thought it would be.  Love the boat!!!!  Can't wait to take it off shore fishing.

Everything you guys talk about is true.  Rides really nice, stable, and user friendly.   I can't get over how easy it is to manuver,  anyone who has ever had a sailboat will know what I mean.

Rick, love the pictures on the board you posted.  Your bimini turned out real nice.  I emailed a picture to my canvas guy to give him some ideas.  

Posted some pictures of my new used boat and my old sailboat.

NICE Boat(s)!!
The layout of your 245 EXP is about the same as my 230 except the very aft.  Seems they started the poleholder area a little farther back, the fishbox, the pulpit and the transom area is different but the rest looks to be about the same - helm area, cabin, front deck, side windows, walk around, baitwell/coolers under the helm seats.

My biminis might fit perfect on yours too!

Awsome bimini,  I never noticed the zipper in the front plastic, great idea.

All I have to do now is clean her up.  your boat looks very clean.  nice rig.

Those shots really show the large deck spaces you have.  Where does the difference in length show up between the two boats?

Nice Morgan!  Do you still have her?

I sold the sailboat, couldn't keep up with maintenance, Two kids and a wife now.

The aft deck is 8 1/2 ft long.  other than that they are probably the same

Thanks.
I also now have total screen enclosure too.  Going to be nice in the summer for the bugs.
I think my cockpit has 13ft from the bulkhead at the steering wheel to where the liner curves in for the motorwell.  I'm sure your's has at least that much.

Next time I get to the boat I will measure it.  This weekend.

I really needed a boat with a transom as high as I could.  The boat stern faces up river.  I could always turn the boat around, but I like the stern facing the river cause I have a great view of all the boats that go by.  But every once and awhile you get a squaw kick up, and I live 90miles from my boat.

your boat looks very clean

I think you have my boat confused with yours  

Once you get her the way you want her, you'll not regret it.
I squawked about the cost of the canvas but what a trip saver it turned out to be on the first campout.  I'm about done with mine now.  Need to find a place to strap a 5gal propane tank and get a few odds and ends but otherwise the big expenses are about done after I get a fresh water tank (knock on wood).

I'm just a simple 222ccp guy in Kentucky, but we consider it a GOOD thing when a squaw kicks up. :twisted:
