Hello All,
Great site here. Been lurking around for a bit now and figured I should join and introduce myself.
Me:
Originally from Orange Beach, Al, now landlocked in Austin, TX. Had an 87 Wellcraft 210, but it seemed overkill for the lakes and fishing here, so she stayed in Bama many years ago. I've been on the casual hunt for a dual purpose boat and this whole freshwater thing. (I dig it so far)
Boat (The important part)
Happened upon a 96 Astro 18 FSX a few days ago and pulled the trigger because I had been w/o a boat for way too long. Seems to run solid and most things work. I'll have to dig into the repair threads and do some research on repairing the floor. 150 Merc hangin off the back. (This is my first outboard) Still learning about the boat and trying to do all the research I can so as to keep from asking the question that's been covered 10,000 times and keep my flame suit intact.
Again great site!
Brad
