Hi, I'm Tony.
I've lived in western Michigan all my life, which has been a really long time. I just bought a 1985 Lund Pro Angler 16, and a friend of mine told me there will be lots of good aluminum boat stuff here for me to use to build it up just how I want it. So if you're trying to get rid of a 50-70 horse OB with trim & tilt, a GPS enabled bow mount electric with remote, or a really nice sonar unit for really cheap, please let me know.

Hi my name is Kevin, from Georgia, I was looking to buy a boat. If it's already fixed up the way I would like it, that would be fine but its hard to find one like that. I'm looking for a 1448, 1552 or bigger up to 1656, and a live well is almost a must? I'm also looking to get a nice trailer; if I have to buy a trailer separately well, I guess thats just what I'll have to do? If you could help me or direct me to someone that could help me I would be appreciative of it? I have a cell phone if needed, and If you must send me pics, I'll gladly check them out? Please Help?

Hey folks my names Jerry and I just signed up today. I've owned a couple fiberglass rigs but its been a while since I've owned a aluminum but I am back in one now. My new boat is a pre 72 starcraft that has been completely transformed. I wish I could take credit for the work but I got it with it already done. I am from Sumner county TN.I live maybe 10-15 , minutes from KY.

Been lingering around for a couple months in here. Traded my fishing kayak for a 1232 flat bottom a couple months ago...

Sold that today, turned around and bought this.
