Wow! It's hard to appreciate it's size without another boat for comparison. Definitely a fishing machine! I'd have to sell my house to run it though.

 

The name "Un-Reel" seems very fitting, lol. Now I don't know what hasmy attention more - the 4 350s or all those rod holders!!??!!!

 

thats the boat of my dreams if I could afford to put the petro in it.

 

So that's where all those nice boats where coming from yesterday. It was like a boat show parade heading east on I10 yesterday. Pretty crazy to see all those nice boats that I can only afford in my dreams.

 

That boat is sick!! If you can afford that thing, your fuel bill is not a real concern.

 

And lord forbid any bo bo blood gets on it....:hoppingmad

 

Thats the guys that were playin the dance music during the weigh inns! I think it was pissying Jack off a little too after he asked them to turn it down twice!:clap

 

That boat is "Un-Reel"..............

 

When are ya upgading Shane?

 

Pretty nice except for the four anchors on the back.......Just joking, those Yellowfins are incredible looking boats. Haven't fished on one yet, how do they ride?

 

Nice....one helluva fishing machine!!:bowdown

 

Obviously, I have Contender gel-coat for blood but Wiley and Yellowfin builds a bad AZZ boat. That boat pictured (and I'm not being nit picky) has the worst looking T-top etc I have ever seen. For one the powder coat is hideous but the whole design just doesnt do it for me. Take that boat "naked" to Eagle Bob and he would fit it with a sleek, sexy t-top. Actually probably a damn good thing it doesnt have one cuz it would have been a long ride home hiding in a fishbox while trailering it home!! They do have sexy lines and do run WELL. The 31 is really comparable to the 27 Contender but the new 32 will be a true match for the Contender 31T. My bet is that it will be like some others built similar. I'd take the layout of the Contenders hands down as for ride the Contender in calm to 1-2 the Yellowfin,Cape Horn etc in the 3-4 and depending on how big your boat and balls until it gets steep enough you cant clamp the kingfish claw hold the F on and let the BEOTCH run then I'm back to the Contender with the lighter bow so you stay dryer and pound less when you just have to sit there for a few hours and run the throttles like peddling a bicycle. Throwing it over a wave then snatchin it back so you hit the top of the back of the next wave not to hit dead center on top or even throw yourself all the way over it and get stern slapped a bit by the 1st wave and land off the V then you'll wake you bean bag boy up!!

 

Dang.

 

NICE DAM BOAT.......

 

this was on the forum last year at some point i think. absolutely retarded. if you're gonna get a 40, why not get an express or flybridge?

bonita dan (11/24/2008)When are ya upgading Shane?

Cause I'm holding out for the 39 Midnight Express with 5 Verado 350's. They told us at the captains meeting that Midnight Express was coming on board as an SKA sponsor for 09. They unveiled the 39 with 5 Verado 350's at this year Lauderdale boat show. Yep.... that's 1750 hp on the back of a center console.

 

they like to be able to go 60 miles an hour!!

 

:bowdown WOW! :bowdown

well speed doesnt mean jack squat if youre in the wrong spot...or if the fish just arent hungry. then you gotta feel like an idiot having a $400,000 boat and a huge fuel tab and no fish on the board to show for it. i just dont get it...can't the 31s and 36s do 60 plus?

 

My question is what good is that tuna door? I mean how the hell are you supposed to get anything bigger than a cigar minow past those motors?

If you get to the wrong spot in a "go fast boat" you can pick up and run to try more spots. In an inboard boat, you'd be more screwed and feeling like an idiot since you spent the same amount of money (or a lot more) and just as much in fuel, but you can't get to better grounds and make it back by scales closing. I would think.

And yes, the 31s will run, but won't handle the seas as well as a bigger boat. Shoot, plenty of bass and bay boats will run 70, but you're not going to fish a king mac tourney in a flat 19 footer are you?

It's all a matter of preference. My personal choice would be like yours (40 Cabo or similar Express model boat), but I think there is certainly a good case for someone spending their money on a boat like that.

no kidding that thing is retarded. besides, if you cant gaff a fish and pick him up over the knee high gunwhale, then you have no business on the gaff.



nbtwil-ill try anything once. but as for a 42 center console having a noticeably more comfortable and DRIER ride than a 31, ill have to see it to believe it.

 

they are incredible boats, Lou and I got to climb on the first one ever made at the Miami show two yrs ago.......you can't tell it but the console is so big, they can and have put bunks in it.

as for the ride, the YF's are the only thing I would compare to the rough water ability of a Cape, obviously I could never afford one of those but when we talked with them in Miami, it requires the oversize load permitting and really weren't designed for the tournament series, just a rich mans fishing toy.

These guys fish SKA tournaments flare start at 6:00am run to the west delta fish all day and be back to the scales to weigh in by 6:00pm try to do that in a express with twin diesels.
