I would like to congratulate you, first for having such a loving wife who thinks so much of your happiness. Then I congratulate you on your new used boat. It looks very sharp and I look forward to seeing you post pictures of your many fish you reel in for many successful fishing trips.

Don't forget to congratulate him on his retirement also. Nice looking retirement present.

Thanks everyone. I know it's not a big boat, but it's a nice boat that fits my budget and my fishing style. I like to travel around Michigan and fish several different inland lakes. This is my first original topic post since becoming a member of the group, I hope to post up some good fish pics. Thanks again, Be Safe and Enjoy the Waters !!

My yacht is a 14' joy. I can handle the boat easier at the landing. I put a Tohatsu 50hp four stroke on the back, and have got the speed up to 42 mph. I hope you get as much joy as I do. Good luck]
i lived in the Jackson area and fished Central, and north of Chelsea in several of the lakes there.

Congratulations on your retirement, Clappy, and your beautiful new rig. Getting permission from your wife guarantees smooth sailing for years to come. I get hundreds of hours of joy and relaxation out of my little 14footer. Good Luck with her, and Tight Lines. We'll be looking forward to the pictures of your adventures. 👍🏻
