Re: California Dive Boats -- the legend of Radon (pictures)

That 24 from Santa Cruz is an H&F and was pretty hammered before the fresh gel coat and overhead. I wouldn't pay $65k for it even if I had that kind of money to throw around.

Danny's Wilson is...

Re: California Dive Boats -- the legend of Radon (pictures)

If you are planning on buying a Wilson, be careful. Depending on when it was built and who it was for, you could run into some serious problems. I could talk all day on this subject so if you want...

Re: California Dive Boats -- the legend of Radon (pictures)

Re: California Dive Boats -- the legend of Radon (pictures)

Mike I was checking out your panga in Albion a few weeks back. I really like it, it seems like a killer set up for live fish, especially around there.
