Great catch no matter where/how !! MM

During our July 4th group vacation to Breezy, we spent some time at the two local sandbars. The Keys are loaded with Mavs, Hewes, PF's and Cobias, We enjoyed speaking to the Owners who were using their boats for all the activities on the water. Will try to get some pics off the phone.. MM

Maverick Boat Group did not obtain the Cobia Brand until well after that year. Since no one answered up, I will forward your request to Administration. MOD2

I have a DV with fishboxes and a mascerator.. I still use a fishbag. It's simple to clean and keeps the fish iced better.. and it makes the walk to the cleaning table clean and easy.. Getting on my hands and knees with a soapy sponge is not as much fun as I recall. Food for thought.. Marc

No sir! Note that Dino's is still there. The one in question has been deleted. Carry on! 👍 MOD2

Gentlemen One very important rule on this forum. If you have a personal issue with another forum member or you have an issue with someone's post, you may discuss it with them via private contact, or you may report the issue to the forum Moderators/Administration. Conveying those issues in a negative manner on the forum will result in the post being deleted, and depending on the severity, the member may be banned from the forum. There are far too many negatives in the world! It will not be tolerated on this forum. This thread has a very positive subject matter. Lets continue down that path. MOD2

I will see what administration says about this. Mod 2

Okay gentlemen! Easy does it! MOD2

It can take some time for the right member to check in and read the thread. In the mean time, here is a guy who has fished the 17 HPX extensively.. Shoot him a call Monday. Charlie Johnson - Director of Marketing Maverick Boat Company, Inc. 772-465-0631: Ext. #126. MM

Nice limit of good Gags, Troy ! Happy (sore) charter guys.. MM

There are plates in the deck structure, but they can only be so big.. The Deck cap meets the hull well inside the rubrail. Did you hit the plate with the other holes ? MM

Finchaser !! Can you compose a new post in the general section that will get Atlantic-side bottom fishermen's attention and repost this discussion. I (We) appreciate you notifying us of this significant change. I was not aware of it either and you will be helping the Members greatly !! Thank you very much ! Mod Marc

Welcome, Tom !! You came to the right place for a pretty MA !! We have a host of MA Faithful who watch ads from all sources to announce available boats. We have seen some real gems recently, Redfishers too ! Let the team know what you want, how much your budget is, and what motor preferences you have. If you are willing to travel to look at a boat, we may have local members who will check it out for you before you drive.. Good luck on your next boat !! Mod Marc

Wish we could have helped you more, Bill ! I hope you enjoy the HPS every trip ! Marc

Sorry for the rough journey, Bill. Sounds like the boat will be a welcome pleasure, and you don't need this aggravation. It would be a simple fix at the next service if your dealer were close. Dino (Capt. Dewalt) is a very helpful DIY-Correctly guy. Many others can let you know how to work the gelcoat finish on your HPS. The polisher will be a helpful tool to speed up the cleaning & waxing regimen. I use a Porter Cable 7424. It is heavy by the end of the job. There are some lighter polishers out there.. I'll let the guys jump in and offer advice on waxes they prefer.. I will send you a private message to see if I can get the polish arranged. Mod Marc
