MY BOAT IS DONE!! 2025


fishing user avatarRedlinerobert reply : 

Just got the call from C&C Marine in Modesto, and my boat is built.  I have no idea how long it will take for it to get here from the factory but I can't wait!  I'll post pictures as soon as it arrives guys.  

;)

What did you get?


fishing user avatarRedlinerobert reply : 

Ranger Z22 with a 300 Merc.  


fishing user avatarcabela10 reply : 

Thats a huge boat.  Is it coming with electronics in it already, or is that the next step in your building process?

Very Nice!!!  Be sure to post some pics.

WOW, nice ride!


fishing user avatarbassin_man reply : 

Wow I bet thats one sweet ride.  But I would hate to see how much it set you back. ;)


fishing user avatarRedlinerobert reply : 

Hopefully I can pick it up in a week or so.  Here is the color scheme i went with.

fishing user avatarJ._Bricker reply : 

Redline Robert- Shouldn't take more than 2 weeks to get it to MoTown during this time of the year, that was about my timeline 3 years ago. I'm also a Ranger Driver, in my opinion there is no other bass boat. Chet and Robert are good people and will take care of you. Oh, and NICE ride.........I know it's going to be Hell waiting.


fishing user avatarbassnleo reply : 

Sweet ride.

6 months to get it delivered? I'd revolt!


fishing user avatarcabela10 reply : 

Redline, did you get a dual or single console?  Did you go with Lowrance and Minnkota?

That thing had to of cost over $55K.... You will get it next week, and I will steal it from you in 2 weeks.  You might as well call your insurance lady and order a new boat on monday.


fishing user avatarJ._Bricker reply : 

Bass N Leo-  Yeah, about 6 months from start to finish, that is walking in to C& C to order it and finally hitching it to the back of my tow vehicle.  Thought I edited that section because I misread Redlines original post  ;).

Redline-  FYI, I'll try and pull to the right if we're both going the same direction on the Shipping Channel out of Ladd's.

The turtle and the hare,lol

Good luck with her, safe travels!


fishing user avatarBASSMACHINE reply : 

Now that is one sweet ride!!  :)  Post some pics of you and them big ol hogs your gonna catch in it!

Of Course I like LBH's too ;) But I don't think the turtle has a chance in this race!! ::)


fishing user avatarcabela10 reply : 

redline, just a question here but doesn't some bass tournament circuits allow a maximum horsepower of 250.   I've seen and heard of people with 300 horsepower motors that purchase 250 decals to get by the hp restriction for tournaments.  Is your boat a tournament boat or a guide boat?


fishing user avatarRedlinerobert reply : 

Thanks guys,  I am hoping that I can pick it up Saturday.  If I do, I'll be fishing Sunday  :)

I ended up going with the MotorGuide Digital trolling motor, and for electronics I chose the Lowrance 332C up front and the Lowrance 26C HD in back.

I chose a dual console, since my dad goes out with me quite a bit I wanted to make sure he is comfortable.

I hear the same thing about tourny's, limiting HP to 250.  I'm not planning on fishing any tournaments though, this for me is a hobby and once I start getting that serious about it then it becomes too stressful.  I'll leave that to the pros  ;)

Cabela10, my boat is fully insured, so steal away!  Did I mention that I have a backup policy with Berreta and Springfield Armoury?   ;D

LBH, your on!  If you ever find yourself in CA look me up.  


fishing user avatarPa Angler reply : 

WOW!!!! What a ride with the 300 you will have WARP capability. Ahead warp factor 6 Mr Sulu. LOL!!!!

I could not agree with you more. Back in 2000 I bought my first bass boat, A Ranger 520DVX also from Richard at C&C. Those guys are the best. I sold that boat in '04, since it sat dormant for almost a year not being used. I was working too much. >;)

After my big fishing trip in November, I had to have a new boat. So I ordered it mid November, and it was finished mid January. I'd say that was pretty quick!

I'll have to start fishing the Delta - maybe we can hook up some time.

I will be the first to admit it.

Good one...

Congrats Redlinerobert!!  Looks like a killer boat!


fishing user avatarRedlinerobert reply : 

I spoke to the salesman today.  The boat arrives at the dealership tomorrow.  Looks like I can pick it up Saturday  ;)


fishing user avatarcabela10 reply : 

Why the 3-4 day wait to pick it up if your dealer has it?

I am sure that the dealership has to prep, check function of all electrical components along with engine. I am also sure that they will give that thing a good bath so it will be shinning like a diamond. I wanna see some pics when you get it!

And yes I have boat *** too!!


fishing user avatarRedlinerobert reply : 

That is correct Bassmachine.  Not to mention that I live an hour and a half away from the dealership, I've been working long days lately too...

Pictures will come Saturday. ;)


fishing user avatarcabela10 reply : 

Oh, I see, I haven't had the honor of ordering a brand new custom boat from a factory yet, so I'm new to this stuff.


fishing user avatarRedlinerobert reply : 

Got the call, boat made it to the dealership, but no Lowrance 26C HD.  :-[  Seems that there is a back order?

Look forward to it. As for the delay on your boat, something about absence and the heart ;). JB
fishing user avatarRedlinerobert reply : 

I spoke to Richard Yesterday.  I'm going to try and locate a 26C HD today and have it overnighted to C&C.  If not I can either pick up the boat as is or wait til they get the unit in.  If I do bring one in I have to get a credit from Ranger since the cost of the unit has already been factored in to the final price.  

Is it like when you get a car that the factory price is much less than if I was to buy it on my own?


fishing user avatarguest reply : 

Totally pimp.

Prettier than a peacock (bass that is)

Be safe, have fun, land a biggun
