Just got our new boat. It was my dad's friends boat. It has less than 40 hours on it. I am pumped. My offshore boat has been out of commission for a couple of years, so I have only had my 18ft weldcraft and my back has taken a pounding because I didn't let that stop me from fishing ship shoal every summer.

Got it for about half of what you can get a new one completely rigged out.

Might want to look into getting a "Judge" in case you need to defend yourself from pirates.

So are you going to use that boat as your offshore boat?

I might do some dorado, ling and snapper fishing in it. But, that would be the extent of it. Mostly it will be used for the ship shoal area for trout.

I love those Blackjacks.

Can you move around in there with that giant T-top on it?

OhFace, that is a really fine boat. Not crazy about t-tops but hey if you like them, why not. I looked at the Blackjacks really hard when I was in the market for a new boat two years ago. It was in my top 5 or 6 behind Yellowfin and Shearwater. I ended up with the Shearwater. You ever take it out in the marsh? How does it do in shallow winter waters?
