It's a walkaround jack and not a bad one @ that
only thing i didn't like was the high step up to get to front Didn't hop on board owner wasn't there so couldn't or didn't bother looking to see if step up were lockers from inside of cab Build looked ok very curious as to how good the dual spray chimes are -------------------- Save The Fish, Eat a Pussy |

QUOTE (quintrex101 @ Jan 25 2012, 04:30 PM)  The Formosa is a great looking boat, looks soild as well.. i agree with 'if you pay alot of money for something, it has to look good!' Jack what are you planning to put on the back of whatever boat you purchase ? I am leaning more and more towards an I/O mercruiser (135HP for the size of boat I am looking at) which would limit the number of plate boats to pretty much 0 (that is zero) unfortunately. I have lowered my fishability requirements so glass bowriders may now be an option as well and there are plenty of those out there. Jack -------------------- |

Yeah I knew you were after a bowrider but I stumbled on those two & thought I'd throw them up for fun.

Thanks all,
Decided to hold off for now. Current state of economy I did not feel comfortable to take on debt for a boat. Will enjoy the little one for a little while longer. Jack -------------------- |
