MY VISIT TO MAINE LAST WEEK.

Jettywolf · 07-25-2006, 07:26 PM

Just thought I'd post a few pics and the verbiage from my "NEWS" page on my web site about my odering of my new 26' Pacific boat, from BlacklabMarine.

Capt. Dave's news page
On 7/19-7/21 Capt. Dave with his dad as a traveling partner went to Blacklab Marine, in Yarmouth Maine, and met with owner Jay Perrotta. Jay is a dealer/representative of Pacific boats for the East coast.

Capt Dave went to order his new charter boat that will be a customized 26' center console "Alloy Plate" Pacific. The boat will be built at the Pacific companies facilities in Washington. But while in Maine, Jay treated Capt. Dave and his dad to some outstanding seafood, and two days of cruising in a Pacific 23' center console hard top, around the unbelievably beautiful coast line between Portland and Yarmouth. Dotted with literally thousands of rocky islands inhabited with summer cottages, and lighthouses. The weather was awesome. 72 degrees, sunny and no wind. It was kind of a mini vacation for Capt Dave, from the Florida heat and to see an area steeped with Maritime tradition and New England lifestyle. Much of the scenery they saw could have been straight out of a New England postcard collection.

When Capt. Dave's new boat arrives, he will be a Pro Rep for BlackLab Marine, providing not only local Jacksonville charters in his Pacific, but also demo rides for prospective and curious people who want to know more about Marine grade aluminum boats by Pacific, from Georgia, North and South Carolina, and all of Florida.

Plate Alloy boats, are not a new concept. PACIFIC BOATS HAVE A 1/4" THICK BULLET PROOF 5086 MARINE GRADE ALLOY PLATE HULL, 3/16" SIDES, FLOOR AND INTERIOR STRUCTURES. And with a bit of research you'll find that fiberglass boats cannot touch a Plate Alloy built boat if you're looking for toughness, strength, speed, sea-worthiness, and fuel economy. Just look at what the US Coast Guard uses! (photos below are of a Gulf Coast customers 23' hard top and some of the awesome Maine Coast scenery)

Capt Dave's 26' center console boat will be built with a "Florida styling" in mind. Open console, no top and console pushed a bit forward. It's going to be a "ride" like you have never seen before, around here.

Intrested in Plate Alloy boats? Want to know more??
Visit: www.blacklabmarine.com

No, they do not get hot when out fishing! I'm building mine because I can see the writting on the wall.....fuel efficiant, strong, and seaworthy. Fuel efficiant is a huge selling point, though.

Just thought I'd post this incase you never saw a boat like this before.
In 8-12 weeks there will be one plying the NE Florida waters around Jax-Amelia Island.
-6-pak inshore trips
-Handicapped acessable

Sweet ride. The enclosure is nice. I know your no getting one but shouldn't you have a top on it? Be carefull wih electrolisis...

Jettywolf · 07-31-2006, 05:15 PM

I have no top now.......I hate t-tops. I can't cast around a t-top. T-tops take the versatility out of a center console.
For me:
*It makes ya lay on anchor goofy in wind & current
*Can't go under a low bridge.
*I hate when my clients have to buy me a new Loomis rod, because they just cracked one hard on the top!
*T-tops are for trollers.

There's no electrolisis. This is Marine grade alloy, plus it has a monster anode. Do outboards get eaten away, Nope.

These boats are not even close to a new idea. See NW boats, Alaska boats, and most USCG boats.

If fuel keeps going the way it is.....this might just be the new breed. Because of weight and efficiancy.

Oh BTW......Capt Chris Gately runs a 23 footer offshore in "New Jersey", striper and tuna fishing.

Opps......glad I ordered one when I did, so I could be first. Another one was just ordered by a fellow Capt here in N.E. Florida on Amelia Island.
