Ain't she pretty.

Massive Fishbox and livewell(maybe not massive but pretty big)

A large console

A lot of room in the back

Flush mounted electronics. The garmin 2006 chartplotter and furuno FCV 600L are both for sale. I will be replacing them with my plotter and fishfinder from the Capehorn. The boat came with a lot of extras also like curtains, downriggers, outriggers and other stuff.

I got up early Sunday morning and drove to Orlando. We put it in the water and run it for about an hour. I bought it and drove back. That's way to far to drive in one day if anybody is wondering.

I can't wait to ride in it. The test drive was in a big lake so I couldn't get the real feel of how it will ride in the gulf. I'm pretty happy right now but I got to get that Cheezy ass name off the side of it. That's just not gonna work.

It's a Worldcat 226 2001

I love mine. First cat I was ever in WC 33 T/E and won't be going back to a V hull. Great ride in rough seas and never have felt that bone jawing hit running into 6ft seas at 35mph. Have fun and congratulations.

SAAAWEEET Joey!!!!!:thumbup:

Gonna love that ride in the chop and an awesome fishing platform not to mention the fuel economy with those sippers.

NICE!!!! Those 115's should sip the fuel. Nice boat congrats!

 

[JoeyWelch]

Thanks everyone.

Cody it's the 226. Don't know for sure but was told the 22-6 was a water line measurement. Looks right, it has a lot of room. It's not real fast, topped out at 32knts but cruised at 25knts with fuel management showing 2.8 mpg. I like this part and that's fast enough for me. I can always leave a little earlier and I have never been in a hurry to get back... The boat is a good bit heavier than my last one but surprisingly It pulls just as good. The trailer looks like a new one.

Sweet boat. You are going to enjoy her!

 

[le4eva]

Congrats to your new cat. I just bought one a week ago and drove to lake Charles to pick it up. I wasn't even tired driving it home. Mines came with 200 optimaxs. I'm suppose to get the same fuel economy but go alot faster. Mines a 2650 Prokat cuddy. I haven't taken mine out yet but can't wait till I do

 

[JMB]

Congrats!

I think your gonna like it!

In reality your speed is not significantly slower than a mono. You will only feel like it because you won't be beaten to death. It's amazing how much faster you think you are going when bouncing and pounding over all those waves. You'll be gliding along.

Is 5mph faster worth the beating? Probably not.

Enjoy!

SWEET!!!:thumbup:

Awesome boat Joey! I'm stoked for you man. Are you gonna change the name?

Thanks everyone. I can't wait to actually fish it.

Chris I'll probably name it "Do It Again" but I'll wait a few weeks to see if anything else comes to mind.

 

[MillerTime]

Congratulations! I will never go back to a monohull again either. Just cant deal with all the pounding.

 

[lastcast]

Looks good Joey, just add some fish blood!

 

[CatCrusher]

Very nice Joey, I'm like you, I want have another one that aint a Cat. Also in my opinion the best motors Yamaha makes (115 HP)

 

[JoeyWelch]
