Even after I changed all the filters and spark plugs, I still clogged and fouled everything with the bad fuel!! I had to have all...

    Storing from Davits

    I know this question was just posted, but was wondering what you guys thought about long term storage from the davit lifts on a 2320? Just bought a house on the river in Ft. Lauderdale and looking for economical methods of getting the boat out of the water at my dock.

    The 2320 lands a big tuna

    Hey all, just wanted to share a picture from a Venice, LA trip my brother and I did this past weekend. The 2320 did very well for a 23 footer 40 miles out with the big boys!! The new kicker performed well until I wrapped some leader around it!! Opps.

    My wife and I fish a 2320 with a single 225 in the tuna waters south of the New Orleans river delta. We are almost constantly fighting a 3-5 foot close spaced chop in the winter months. We get beat up in these seas and often can not make more then 10kts. There is a used 2520 of the same...
