I thought you had something closer to home all lined up?
Hey Steve,
Yes, I do sort of.....long story. I am just dreaming a bit and the rig lined up is nowhere near the rig this H&H is!!

MDI,
I love the cleanliness of it and those lines are perfect to my tastes. I really like these H&H's!
That Dixon must be a beast!!
Have you ever seen this video of the 50x24 Dixon (Lobster Staulker)?

Hi Buddy,
Hey i just remembered what old man Ollie Klein of Kleins fish market in Belmar used to tell me "Stay small and screw'em all son" makes more sense now that it ever did. Be careful buying those big rigs.

MDI,
Thanks, that would be great. I agree about the Dixon.....crazy!! There is a big, squarish Novi close to me. The new owner is a nice guy and he is almost always working on it, doing one thing or another to it. Next time I ride by I will ask him if I can take some pics. This thing is a beast as well!!

Steve,
Thanks for the words of wisdom! I know that fish market and restaurant -- nice place!!
You know, before I got on this 32 Mitchell Cove kick I was on a 29 H&H kick. I really cannot decide what I want to go with, but either way I need to save more money. I want to have a solid 50K to put down.
This 40 H&H is just exactly (mostly) what I want. I mean the layout is pretty much my ideal lobster rig!!
I am so confused...... :confused:
LOLOLO....cheers,
---Brian

The fish market & restaurant is now run by Olie's great grand son also named Olie he used to manage the restaurant across the street from the fish market it was called Evelyn's back when i was fishing there don't know anything about it now. I think something around 32-36 would be a nice size for what your wanting to do. Are you planning to have a crew or fish single handed? I had a crewman for lots of years once he left me i started fishing by myself and really loved it, i could catch less and still make great money. The only guy on my boat after that was "Mr. Plywood da trap tray"
he was never late for work cause he was bolted to the gunnel
& stern :D

There is a 32 MC close to my friend Joe's boat in Shark River, it might be for sale. There is also a red 42 Duffy? on the hard in the back of Bry's property just up the road from where Joe ties up, i'd bet Bry might own it for the storage charges, stop in at Bry's shop on rt 35 and ask about it. If you get some time go down there and talk with both Joe & Joey tell them i sent ya, they are both great guys.
Here's my Maine Coaster tied up next to Kleins

I used to own this dock on the north channel of shark river it just up the street from Joe's boat where the street comes out behind the motel

my starfish dragging skiff and a bowpicker i built when i was back there. The building in the background is when Consumers Marine Electronics first started out, Phil the original owner is a good friend of mine.

I've been out on a 42 x 16 Dixon. The boat is huge ! A 117 inch tuna doesn't look so big laying across that deck :D
One time on it coming into Green Harbor Ma. there was another bigger Dixon coming in behind us. Think it was 48.
That boat made the 42 look small.
