That is a very fine boat for the delta, bays, inshore and lakes.

Kenny - Email sent.

Hey Ed, believe me, I'm gonna miss writing 'em. My love affair with the Delta has been intense, rewarding but way too short.

We're going back to the UK. Looks like we're going to take a house in the Welsh hills with sheep for neighbors and six miles to the nearest town. There are two small wild trout streams within 10 minutes of the front door and a whole range of trout, grayling and occasional salmon, within an hour's drive.

But no bass, I'm afraid - still, I have enough topwater tales to bore the arse off the locals for many a year!

Cheers

Mike

PS You'll be welcome to visit anytime. You can even bring Lee - no snakes.

I had a 1996 Dauntless 16'. That was the best boat I've ever had.

Not a good time to sell a boat, but she's gone. Buyer liked my set up so much he took the boat, the hoist and the remainder of the annual berth rental.
(Wanted my wife as well but ya gotta draw the line somewhere!)
