[QUOTE="SLE, post: 323041, member: 3889"] You know, I didn't miss those days until I recently tried it. Just like many on this board and guys you see at the lake, I continually yearned for the biggest baddest machine on the water and over the past 15 years kept upgrading, and upgrading, and upgrading until finally getting into my dream 219 Yar-craft. Of course, I'm supper picky, don't want to tow it down the gravel, I wipe it off every time out of the water, It's stored in doors or has the tarp buckled down when it's outside, and I'm eternally trying to keep it pristine which I've done a pretty damn good job at. HOWEVER...............................my son wanted his own boat in the worst way, so last fall we picked up a 86' Lund predator 16' tiller with a 60 Merc and I haven't fished out of the Yar-Craft since, lol! It's been quite refreshing to have more ability and willingness to go to any lake, be it bad roads, bad ramps, etc. and not worry about the boat, or getting it dirty, or a rock chip, or launching it off some gravel ramp that I have to drive back so far in the front tires of the truck are 20 ft from shore! It does have an i-pilot front TM, a rear tiller TM, with wave whackers, a Lowrance Elite 7 and marine band radio so it's not like I'm completely roughing it, lol. In any regard, it sure has been fun getting out on lakes I haven't fished in years with my son and teaching him the way in how to operate and run his own boat. With all that said, the Yar is still pretty great on the big water! [/QUOTE]
