Aluminum Boat Plans

Aluminum Boat Plans

We recently purchased a used Roberts 44 offshore and stored her  in a yard in Ft. Lauderdale .One month later we received a notice to vacate the yard (the bulldozers are coming in 3 weeks!!) . We jumped on a plane to rescue our new treasure, they put Fortuna in the water the day we arrived . We set out the next day for Glades Boat storage yard 135 miles north &west.
I have owned at least 10 boats, and was in delighted shock as the first large boat wake bounced off our boat and we did not go for the usual roller coaster ride !! My wife is now a confirmed steel boat convert.  We took the boat through many different conditions; shallow, deep, calm, choppy, etc., and were always prepared for the worst and pleasantly surprised that no matter what challenge was thrown at her, she met (and mastered) it without a care. What a wonderful smooth riding vessel.  We just cannot wait to start the refit and get cruising!  Will send pictures as able   Happy steel boat owners

  2. I want to get a little fishing boat so bad. I am actually not getting it for myself, it's for my friend. He is one of the top fishermen in the country and he doesn't have a boat. He just takes people out on their boats. How much would a little fishing boat cost? http://www.deweysmarine.com/faq.html
