The White Turtle
I suppose I should explain "The White Turtle." Recently my wonderful wife Amanda allowed me to purchase a boat. Of course my bass fishing buddy was politicking for a 70mph tournament bass boat. So when I chose to go in the flats boat direction needless to say he was slightly disappointed. Due to the fact that the boat tops out at 32mph he rightfully nicknamed it "The White Turtle." For me it's perfect, I absolutely love the boat. It is a 17 foot Hewes Tailfisher with a 60 hp Yamaha. It has all the little things including Power Pole, Minn Kota trolling motor, Raymarine Electronics, Sony Stereo system, and fiberglass push pole. I did have to make a couple changes to the boat once I bought it. Just some small maintenance oil change, fuel filter, and some wiring. Other than that everything has been wonderful. I have already had the opportunity to slay some Reds, and just for my buddy I put some bass in the boat.
