    New to me

    Just picked up my first bass boat two weeks ago. I actually stumbled across this site when trying to find some info about chine walking. I have been really impressed with the amount of info that I was able to find on this site. Now onto to the important stuff. My boat is a 2000 Blazer 180 Pro V with a 150 Yamaha on it. It is by far the fastest I have ever been on the water(65 with a full load). I have had lots of ducks boats before but I dont think I will ever be able to go back to that style of boat. Anyways thanks for the great site.

    That is a sharp Blazer...you're just up the road from me...well maybe 45 minutes.

    Welcome to the boards and congrats on your new boat

    as far as going back to the other style of boats, it's amazing how spoiled we can get.

    Yeah the guy I do most of my fishing with has a 16 express aluminum duck boat. Up until I bought this boat we fished out of his. That poor boat will not see the water until November.
