Wow.... End of an era.
Sorry for your loss, but congratulations on the sale. So which day was better? The day you bought her, or the day you sold her? The day I bought her was way better. My stomach was all knotted up on the day I let her go. Looking forward to experiencing those giddy 'new toy' emotions all over again. In the meantime, it's pretty entertaining to observe all the speculation.

I cant imagine it would be anything other than a new Formula Vee with all the goodies and then some.

Doc:
Some of the boat manufactures are welding "cleats" toward the bow of the boat......allow easy swinging of the boat while "on the hook" fishing spoons. I didn't see that as a option at Willies, maybe just not listed??????
I'm actually having "River Wild", make up some, screw down cleats, for my boat.....won't be welded on.....but will do what needs to be done.

Well you DID spill the beans to me last Fall while fishing....unless something better came along in the interim and you changed your mind. Regardless, Looking forward to seeing what you conjur up. Getting some anticipation going myself as my new drifter's about 2 weeks out.

DrifterWa....how about a cleat that is MOVABLE to any position you want. I will guarantee you have never seen a "chalking" system like this ever before! Eric...if what Doc discussed with you began with W, yes something better has come along  Tiller controls with pump and prop interchange included....did I mention the word custom....lol CM

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.
