Sold to Me!

This is going to be my new sidescan sonar boat. Picking it up next week.

Thanks to Jeff Rohlfing for the tip. It'll be a fine boat for us in our shipwreck hunting work.


She makes my 5th Whaler over the years. Yippee!

Cool guys, thanks to all. Crabby, well done!! Appreciate it VERY much.

A-Frame already dreamed up, a bow to protect the outdrive from the towfish umbilical, a large-screen monitor for the sonar operator, and we will be in business. I'm thrilled.

Good luck with it Dave. That was one heck of a bargain. If I wasn't stuck with storm repairs on my house I would have been all over it myself.

Real thanks should go out to a friend (Rich) who occasionally posts here as he sent me the link I posted here.

Nice boat. Candidate for Yanmar or Volvo diesel transplant.

Good Luck with this she looks nice. The trailer looks good and the engine appears to have fresh water cooling, a big plus.After Crabby posted the link I started to rationalize a Stone Crab/Lobster rig, you saved me.

Great looking boat and terrific value. Can't wait to see what you do with it, Dave.

I'm really looking forward to setting this up as a sidescan survey boat. Might take a year but I'm going to set it up according to my needs, no compromise. I cannot think of a better platform for our work. We will be able to dive from it to check targets, but main use will be to have the powered reel and A-Frame for the sonar fish and the operators station all set up. Can't wait to see her completed.

Yanmar Diesel... Hmm.... :-)

Man, someone should call the cops, that boat was a steal. I SERIOUSLY thought about it, as we have property nearby.

Congrats, Sutton. Nice rig.
