Chessie27's boat
Here is a video of Chessie 27's boat running.. All I can say is that I am jealous.
http://youtu.be/a0utEgtq-8s She cruises at 28knots! :eek: bhl (bruce) has the same boat. Just without the seagull cooker-type radar. |
That video is OK, but to really get the true feeling, you need to be standing on the deck (like I did) while at speed:D
She virtually leaps up on plane and gobbles up the chop while running to the fishing grounds. I felt a little bad about suggesting we troll down by Bloddy Point when Jeff had her slipped above Tolchester (not this year, she will be right where the action is off Kent Island). We (Allan and I) saw her from Sandy Point as she headed south to pick us up at SP State Park. We climbed aboard and raced south duplicating the speed of my 27 Judge. I was impressed:eek: What a great platform to cruise or fish the bay. I know Jeff (Justified), Bruce (Hook 'em), and Steve (Conjuror) are tickled with their boats. Best of luck to all of them this fishing season (I already received invitations to fish with them this year at Bill's Open House). 5th (Marty) |
You are right Marty. The 36 eats up a chop. It just "nudges" through it. I have been on the Hook'em before Bruce owned her (It was Bill's old boat named Blue Moon). Bill has done wonders with that hull.. Now if only I could tow one behind my Tundra (and tell my kids that they are SOL for college help :eek:)

I guess the "shake down" went as planned:) I'm glad to see you're back in the slip and ready to go. 5th (Marty) |

I did drop 2 lines one deep and one back 180' for about an hour. But I didn't do that untill I got over by 83 where it started to flatten out. I was alone and the wsw wind made it pretty rough on the east side. I did see more bait on the east side. Some of it was balled up pretty good but deep. Most of what I saw on the west side was scattered. 41 degree water. Yes, the sea trial went well and I had no surprises, and that's good because I hate surprises. bhl (Bruce) |

I didn't realize you were by yourself. You should have asked, we could have found someone to go with you:D
When we were out last Monday, I was thinking how big the bay is when trolling 6 lines, no wonder you didn't catch anything dragging only 2 lines:eek: Glad all went well. John and I may be out this Wed. for another scouting trip. 5th (Marty) |
