I just picked up a 1991 Sunbird Sea Core 173 with a 90 hp Evinrude. My father and I fished out of it while I was in college, but since I moved out of my hometown and he had gotten older he didn't use it for 10 years, letting it sit in his driveway. He told me that I could have it if I wanted it, so I drove 22+ hours to pick it up. I had a dealer tune up the motor and I took it fishing yesterday here at the Laguna Madre in south Texas. It ran well once warmed up. There were a few minor problems that I'll address later on, just wanted to introduce myself right now. Overall we had a great time. I forgot how much fun boating is.

Welcome to iboats. :)

Put us in your Favorites and feel free to ask anything. I'll warn you about Dockside Chat. It can get rough down there. Politics and all. Never take anything personally. Lotsa hot air down there in the iboats basement. ;) You're reasonably safe up here in the boating topics. :)
