I was trailering through middle of rual Virginia and had to refuel at the town's only gas station. The boys didn't know what to make of the beachcat but they all wanted to know "if ya cud fish from that". LOL

Don't know if the prop depth is enough for testing curve boards.

Corbin off of Rt 2. More of a cross-roads than a town. Heading to Virginia Beach while avoiding I-95 and Rt-17 backups on a Friday evening.

How can Macca be going bonkers when he already is bonkers?

I've landed, (and kept/ate) my biggest fish I caught yet, off of my Prindle 18-2 about 18 years ago.

54inch King maccarel, with a pen rod and reel. Also have cuaght dozens of Black tips sharks, etc.

So yes, you could fish from that thing.
