    Your picture isn't working.  However I'm impressed none the less.

    Fathead, that doesn't seem very long, pretty tall though, might not be real stable on Erie. Some say it's not the length that matters, but the girth, lol.

    should do fine on erie good wash down in a 3to 5ft wave brings a new meaning to clean the deck seen a few centers i like looking to up grade my 16 ft and have been eyeing centers good at the islands the best boat for casting at the islands is a center not a cuddy

    I believe that hull has an excellent reputation for having a smooth ride in rough water rider.
     
    Nice Boat ! ! !

    No replacement for displacement and it has a 144 gal tank, in my opinion it's better to have and not need than need and not have.  Don't intend on running her wot much only to scare the wife and daughter when I take them on a ride.  Previous owner claims 68 mph gps on calm water.  I've fished Erie for 25 years, most of them in an underpowered rig.  I've been on the 2 hour 10 mile ride back in five footers, no fun.  I also want to start getting into some saltwater fishing on my own so this to me is a step in the right direction.  I was looking for this boat for a few years all over the internet and finally found one.
