MY2SONS Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 I haven't got her outfitted with riggers, rod holders, and the like, but at least the hard part was achieved.......convincing the wife I needed a boat. Still trying to figure out how to upload a picture of her. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MY2SONS Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 Here goes. See if this works. I bought a 2003 Baha Cruiser 277 GLE . No fishing equipment on her yet with the exception of rocket launchers, radar, GPS, and fish finder. Next year I'm planning on downriggers, rod holders, and a 20 Hp kicker.

MY2SONS Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 Yes, she's a keeper (both my wife, and the boat). I'd love to get the boat rigged for this season, but I've been spending money like Obama so looks like next year, or Christmas, will have to do.

A-Fishy-Anado Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 The deck room for fishing on these boats is incredible. I have always wanted one just like this one but unfortunately i have to trailer an awful lot so i think i will just stick to my 24'. I love it and i am sure you must be coming out of your skin by now wanting to dip her!! Nice find John:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MY2SONS Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 Now this is important and leave out no detail becouse i REALLY need to know! How did you convince her that you needed this boat?very nice ride Originally I had a 17' 2001 Lund Fisherman, and was quite satisfied with it, but the wife didn't like it because it was too small for her and the kids to go on. At the time this wasn't a problem for me since the hours I fished was long before they even got out of bed. I told her that we could sell mine with the understanding that we had to get another on in the near future (2-3 year time frame). She agreed and after explaining what creature comforts she was expecting on a boat, and what I required for fishing I found the Baha Cruiser. I immediately fell in love with the design, and my wife liked the cuddy for the kids. She finally caved in after months of talking about needing a boat, and how nice it would be to take the boys out fishing. It worked! She's a great wife, and very understanding even though she never lets me forget how much I spend on fishing equipment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the morning we leave early and head out. They usually wake up somewheres around 9:30am. I think its the rolling and rocking in the cabin that keeps them sleeping.
