Russ, it was one of those deals that doesn't come along often. Guy called me about it, said he wasn't interested in electronics or Terrova and would pay my absolute low dollar price. That was how I was planning on selling it, he's fished out of it so he knew what he is getting, AND he wants me to keep it in my garage till the Excel is ready to back into its place. He even told me to keep fishing out of it till he picked it up. No way I was going to do that. Sometimes one sort of feels that there is a higher power involved, this is one of those times.


Here's my new toy. Excel 203 Bay Pro. Getting it with a 140 Suzuki from BRM (Big River Marine) on the Mississippi Forum. Shouldn't be hard to spot. It's white with white interior like the pics. Should look great when I drag one of those 10 pound channel cats that's bleeding over the side.

Now tell us the truth, was it Chaunc?

Nope, even though Chaunc, his brother Rich and their buddy TO have spent several hours in that boat. Local friend who is not a member here yet.

Hey Russ, I enjoyed fishing from his boat and sorry to see it go butttttttttttttt...... That new one is sharp and I look forward to fishing with Doug in it. My next boat will be one big enough to handle Lake Erie's big water. That won't be for a few more years yet tho. When I do get my next boat, I'm inviting all my CDC family to come north and enjoy a nice weekend on the lake. Just not everybody at one time

Chaunc you just wanna whip my tail in Doug's new boat. The wife and I just returned from Ohio where I fished out of Port Clinton, Ohio. Got my limit an helped several others get their limit. Always enjoy fishing on Erie, its the lake I cut my teeth on.
