Had to drop out of the Detroit tourney--boaters side. Didn't get my boat in time. It was originally supposed to be done on March 1st, then March 15th and so on. Couldn't get the trailer. Was so sure I would make. Got my money in on the 20th and had everything ready to go. Such a great dissapointment especially when I absolutely love to jig. Now if Rainy would hurry up and open in the next week so I could at least head up there.

I feel your pain homey, Thats why I got a boat rigged it out and am fishing out of it for 2 or 3 years. I know of 2 other guys last year who got ther boats 1 week before tournaments began, and had alot of problems with it all season long. It was almost like they put it together half a##ed, just to get it out. What make of boat are you waiting on?

I had planned on ordering my new boat next Jan., but after hearing about all the delays this year, I am beginning to think that Nov. is the month to order one. Maybe we should order the motors in Nov. and the boat in Jan,?

Now we have to wait for Lowrance to supply electronics that have been on order for 2 months. Why are they advertised if not available?

I'm starting to think that my old aluminum row boat should never have been sold at my wife's last garage sale.

I was waiting on my 2025 Pro V. I had ordered all the way back at the beginning of November and of all the things that could have delayed it had to be the trailer. If I would have thought that it would have come down to that I would have had them put it on a different trailer just to make the tourney.
