16' Glastron Sportster, 80 hp Evinrude, Minn-Kota Edge 50#, new pedastal seats, VHF marine band radio, Sirius satellite radio, 2 batteries on 1/2/both/off switch, compass, 6 rod storage tubes, 4 rod holders, bimini top, interior lights, solar charger, much more.

Hi all,
my little yacht is an Alumacraft Fisherman145 Tiller.
I fish on trout lakes so her propulsion is a Minn Kota Vantage 80 lb thrust trolling motor
her fuel tank is a 24 volt system 4x deep cycle gell batteries inline.
this gives me about 2 days fishing on a single charge at trolling speeds and also supplies all other power to lights,live well,electronics.
if the wind gets up,ill kick it up to 10 on the control dial and she will do about 5 knots in a head wind.
the batteries are kept hot by an onboard 10amp 4 bank charger made by a fellow in Tucson.
just plug into a wall outlet/camp generator and shes ready in a few hours.
electronics consist of Lowrance X-125...mid range...works great.
live well,cushion high back seats and double hull foam,makes this a little boat that can do it.
Jocelyn is her name,after my grandaughter of course.

Mine is a 14 1/2' custom jon/flats fiberglass hull.  I built the dry storage/casting decks.   It has a 2003 Mercury 25 hp, MinnKota Riptide 55# 3X with Diehard AGM and MK110 on-board charger.  I have a 21' telescoping pushpole for real skinny water.   It is great for 2 people in bays or flats.  Can run in 7", troll in 9" and pole in 5".  Have hit 36 MPH with me, my buddy and all gear(650#) on a glassy day.  Initially paid $300 for hull.  I stripped, filled, re-glassed where needed, primed and painted.  Then built it from there.  About $4800.00 with motors, trailer, battery, electronics and accessories.   Does what I want it to do.

I have a Ranger 680C 1989. Great boat for all around fishing. Eagle electronics Minnkota motor Johnson outboard. I can do just about anything in it . Had out on the Great lakes and Cheasapke bay It set for down riggers.

               Moose a gator would climb right in and make you a snack.LOL    It`s 500. or less. I got it on craigslist for 250. I can`t have a trailer where I live or I would have a wide jon boat.I leave that on top of my van.
               I`m still waiting to catch something big enough to pull me around.
               It will go just about anywhere with 2`` of water.
