New Fishing Machine!

My new boat arrived at LKA this morning!  It's a 198 DLV Carolina Skiff.  Loaded with 90 HP Suzuki 4-stroke, 24V Minn Kota Rip Tide trolling motor + i-Pilot (80 lb thrust), Lowrance HOOK2 12" on the console and a HOOK2 9" on the bow (all with down imaging and side scan to boot).  Have to break it in at 4000-4500 RPM for 4 hrs before I can really fish from it.  Got 1.5 hrs on it today after being beaten (but not wet, which was amazing) in the 20-30 MPH winds today.  Rode very well in that nasty chop of 2-3 footers today!  Will try to get the other hrs in tomorrow and then hopefully do some fishing on Friday/Saturday.  Pics below.  More pics tomorrow.
