Judging from your comments Faz, I guess Larry wasn't smiling when he was driving the Gambler? ??? I think those tightly gripped hands on the wheel, the squinty eyes with tears coming from the edges of them, and his cheeks pulled back behind his ears were a sign of something else.

I had the privilege of fishing in the new boat with Larry, and yes it is a sweet ride real quick out of the hole and nice and stable at 65mph no chine walk and not squirrely at all. Larry looked so much more relaxed at speed.

Congrats Larry on the new boat and the finish. Wished I couldve been there to see the new boat and to witness the finish. Just seems I cant do anything but hardly any more. Hopefully I will get back to some meetings and tourneys so I can see it.

Atta boy, Larry! Both on the new boat and the great Jamboree finish!!! It looked like the weather was smoking hot over there, so you must have had those bedding smallies dialed in
So... is this a BRAND NEW baby? I thought Nixon's deals Procraft?

Well it has come to pass that, yes I or my Wallet have given birth and for next 109 months shall be paying for the education, upkeep and maintenence of a ProCraft Pro 190 bass boat with a Mercury 150 EFI and a Motorguide 67 lb trolling motor...now, although She will be following in my footsteps and not attending school it does have a brain with a Lowrance LMS240 GPS depth finder at the console and an 87" at the front deck. She already is showing her Legs as she can get on plane instantly and up to 63 MPH at top end. Like her Dad she has endurance with a 49 gallon fuel tank and can handle lots of fish with a 46 gallon split livewell....oh and while I am at it she has already proven her self with a 13th finish at the jamborree with 25+ lbs.......so let it be known that the Intimidation has ended.....unless one of you want to pick her up at Nixons....she if already listed on the site. Thank you Gambler, it has been a fun ride.
