Where there's a will there's a way! I think he's actually legal too, except for maybe a red flag on the end. I used to do the same thing with my big ol' flat-back aluminum canoe. Thanks to a good solid ratchet strap, I never had an issue. I wonder what kind of a motor he has squirreled away in there? I bet he just throw the truck in reverse at the ramp, gets it up to speed and then hits the brakes so that the boat just POPS right out of the back into the water

Too bad the weight of those seats probably legally reduce the capacity of the boat to 1 passenger + motor & gear...

Wonder how easy it is to run an outboard from one of those seats? Do you have to sit facing backwards, and look over your shoulder to see where you are going?

Surprised there aren't a bunch of drywall screws sticking though the hull where Jethro screwed it down....

... as opposed to Claifornihuh? Shoot, everybody and their grandma has a boat down here (literally). I wouldn't be surprised if a grandma was actually driving in that pic. I bet they just have a little trolling motor, or 5 hp hidden in there for hittin' the ponds and stuff. We pretty much consider anything that floats and brings you home again a "boat". You'll see jon boats miles off shore at oil rigs, Bass boats on the flats, Pontoons and sail boats up the Rivers and canoes and kayaks everywhere in between. It's fun.

I like the seats, but it's not a fishing boat. It's a floating lounge. Lay the seats flat and chill.

Re: Saw this at Gas station yesterday!

Could there be a steering "stick" hidden below the gunnel?

Re: Saw this at Gas station yesterday!

Oh yeah, some serious, low-speed pond cruisin' gonna happen there. We all know it's not the size of the boat, it's the motion of the ocean ......I hope :/

Re: Saw this at Gas station yesterday!

For the cost of those seats, he could of bought a little trailer. BTW - why does he have a hitch?

Re: Saw this at Gas station yesterday!

Do you guys and gals ever stop to think --- how you get a boat to water has a whole lot less to to with: if it floats , dont leak, and is comfortable for resting your fat hinny in for 6-10 hours for fishing !!
Maybe ,, just maybe some one was smart enough to not bust into next months SS check for gas. worms and minnows and has cofffee change left over from the trailer they did not license,, insure or need !!

Re: Saw this at Gas station yesterday!

the hitch is so he can tow the other boat at the same time...duh I'm with Early Cuyler, every man's gotta have gotta have a Tuck-Boat-Truck and/or Tuck-Boat-Boat.

Re: Saw this at Gas station yesterday!

Guess he's got a pet Gorilla to help him load and unload that boat!

Re: Saw this at Gas station yesterday!

Do those seats say Capri on them as in Bayliner Capri? If they are, its an upgrade for those seats.
