[QUOTE="Restrained, post: 331536, member: 12610"] I have been a lurker here and figured it was time to speak up. My name is Mike and the wife and I reside in Northeast Ohio. Years ago I owned a Bass Tracker and loved it dearly. Unfortunately life happened and I was forced to part with the boat because of a divorce. Recently I purchased a small 12' aluminum MirroCraft deep V hull. I was not happy with the handling of the V hull especially if I stood on the elevated fishing platform. I decided to move forward to a larger, wider, and more stable fishing platform so the search was on. The things I wanted most was a aluminum boat. Something that I could launch easily if I was alone. A modified V hull as was my 1st Tracker. 16 foot in overall length. I really liked the idea of stick steering from the front of the boat. And a large livewell. Several months after my search started I found a boat to my liking on Craigslist. The boat is a 1992 Bass Tracker PanFish 16 Special, equipped with a Evinrude Force oil ejected 40 HP outboard. The boat has some issues, soft flooring, worn out carpet, electrical issues, and in need of a general face-lift. My plans are to totally gut the boat and work from the hull up. I'm sure I'll ask more than a question or two and if you aren't already bored to death please stick with me. Sure it's going to be fun. (Wink) [/QUOTE]
