I put on the new tiedown strap and brought her home.

Why would you use a strap? They can ride down the road upside down just fine!:eek: :D

If I could drag her upside down across the hyway and turn her into a Judge 36 I would:eek:. That's one sweet looking boat Bill built you. I can't wait to see you on the water. Where are you keeping her?

If you see a 27 out there with with "caribbean blue" curtains and bottom paint, give me a shout on 68.

I stood in line for 2 hrs and voted early on Friday night so I may get out on Tuesday:D

Thanks! She is in Chestertown right now. May take down to Kent Island if fishing picks up. I'll keep an eye out for you if I make it down. The 27 is a great boat and I LOVED it for many years; I am sure you will too. For the record, I have a 19' from Bill too and as soon as it got to the top of the boat ramp before the storm, the tie down strap was on it!! I wasn't even going a mile but I made sure she was tight!! My wife was so proud of me :D

Chessie27; If you can figure out how to post a photo, I'm sure the guys would love to see your new 36 Chesapeake:D

Marty- not sure how to post pic but here is an attempt. Guess I can't do more than 1 so another post or 2 to follow...

A shot at the ramp for her initial launch.

36' Judge
 

Running down the Chester at 25.4mph at 11.1GPH!! It is unreal how quiet the boat is. We are very happy with it, now just need the time to get blood on the deck!!!!

Wow; she looks even better running. I'm still blinded by all those rod holders glistening in the sun:D. If I had your boat, I'd have to ask all my friends to bring rods with them when we went out:eek:.

Congratulations.

Bill sells nice rods too! I think he put all the rod holders in so I would have to buy more rods...smart guy.

Just in Case people don't think those numbers sound right with the Cummins 480hp I thought I would throw this one in too.
