Where are Ginger and Mary Ann when you need them?

Ponyroper · Jul 21, 2016

Introducing my new (used) puddle jumper-the USS Minnow. Just hope I don't end up stranded on an island like Gilligan, unless, of course, Ginger and Mary Ann are there.

It's 4'x10' and handles over 500#. Now I need to pimp it out with rod holders, a depth finder, trolling motor and an anchor like Dean Nelson's Pipsqueak. It pulls real nice behind my little Toyota SUV so I won't have to use the big gas guzzling suburban to tow it around.

Neat! Stealthy, inexpensive, can get into small waters. It's midway between a kayak and a small tiller.

Sorry but SS Minnow name is already taken. Flag thrown.

Used to have exact boat. They are fish catching machines. Used in Bays on Sak for years and they will take bigger waves than you think but don't recommend testing that wave thing out too much.

Dang, do you have Ginger and Mary Ann too? How about Mud Puppy, does anyone have that one?

PrairieGhost · Jul 21, 2016

Mud Puppy sounds like a real neat name for a boat on small water. It made me think of salamanders. I have a 1982 9.9 Johnson that only has two tanks of gas through it. It needs a home and I would like to find a 14 ft John boat. Maybe I'll call it the A. T. Salamander. A T for Ambystoma tigrinum = tiger salamander. At one time I built a trap for those critters to take the heat of farmers. Long story.

That looks like a ND duck slough slaughter wagon.

Hey, there you go: SS Slaughter Wagon.

You're welcome.

Ha ha. There can be multiple minnows... Have at it!

How about Minnow Bucket?

I do let off a little air now and then. Not enough for me to lift off but people nearby seem to get up and leave rather quickly for some reason. ;:;barf

can I eat seeds in it?

My little boat is the SS Creek Chub

Hey there you go the SS Chubby.

svnmag · Jul 22, 2016

Steven. The end.

Ponyroper · Jul 22, 2016

Considered calling it Titantic Jr. or The Nautilus but maybe that's being a little pretentious. Think I'll stick with Mud Puppy.

svnmag · Jul 22, 2016

Racist.

You could call it "The Bismarck" and blast Johnny Horton from a portable radio.
