Thread: What kind of boat do you have, or would like to have?

How about an iceboat?!!

As cold as it was this morning when I went Duck hunting I believe I could use a Ice Boat

Because I have a 1960 Lonestar with a 1960 35hp seaking motor that I still need to do allot of work to and I wouldn't wish for another until I get my rug-rat going.
But if I could go and buy one? it would be something like Bob has, aluminum, moves fast enough for me, good electronics, Troling motor and if he came with it then he could control it for me while I fish (Oh wait, I guess I have one of those too, I just didn't have to buy it ) I just don't get to fish out of it often as I would like

:D

I got an 03 xpress 18.5' aluminum with a 90 Merc. Don't have to worry about scratching the paint or dinging the sides. I am a little rough on things. Lots of storage but no baitwell or livewell in front. It is a catfish addition which has a big livewell under the driving seat. Also has a livewell in the back platform. But does what I ask and suites my needs.

If you like crappie fishing, I would say look at a "War Eagle Predator" I just bought mine in the spring of 09 and I love this boat. I use mine in current and wind and it seems like whatever direction i put this boat it stays. It is made of aluminum. I think the builders of this boat put a lot of thought into this boat. I have had many types of boats in 30 years of guiding on the Mississippi River and would recommend this boat to anyone who loves crappie fishing.

Here is the front of my war eagle predator. took picture on dec 2 (last day fishing before old man river pulled the blanket on for along winter nap) you can only use three rods to spider rig in wisconsin (DNR Nazis). This boat comes with a aerated built in minnow bucket. I could keep 12 dozen minnows alive all day long in the summer in that unit. Once i learn how to crappie fish better I may not need so many minnows. Great fishing machine

For fishing 89 Astro fish and ski, windsheild is great to have this time of year

Badaxed That is a fine looking boat alot of room up front
