Orange Beach area is a lot of fun, Perdido Sound etc. I plan on a RV trip to "LA" and bringing my Montauk for some great sight seeing. Last trip was a little cool for boat but area was super. NOTE: LA is "Lower Alabama" for you folks from up North Edited by tkhvdh on 08/26/09 - 2:47 PM

I was not converted then as i was a blow boat guy with a 27' stilletto. Used to do the annual Dolphin Island race out of the Mobile Y Club. Now that i've seen the light, own a 22 Outrage. Duf

Member Personal Page Photo Albums Posts: 840 Comments: 9 Joined: 04/22/07	agreed Mojack, but the fevers deep. I actually have two, an 87 and 88. Working on both, and plan on upgrading to a 80's vintage 25 outrage with Whaler drive and twins. Been doing the offshore fishing thing and need a tad bigger boat and twin motors. You have one in your area that has been for sale a while, Big C's i believe is the name. Wants to much and it doesn't have Whaler drive. Duf Edited by duf on 08/28/09 - 5:45 PM

Funny tagline :-) I'll tell you in the last 35 years the RR has really changed from a lazy beach resort to a hot spot. Orange Beach, Perdido Key, Destin and a new International Airport coming to Panama City Beach. The old RR will be the new International South Beach and will see folks visiting from the "Real Riviera" spending money and enjoying the emerald waters. Edited by tkhvdh on 09/02/09 - 3:11 PM

Whoever convinced the planning/zoning board years ago that this was a good development concept could sell ketchup popsicles to a lady in white gloves.

I'm sure it makes it a little more difficult to fish around, but the tradeoff is (at least in my opinion) great additional storage in the stern, and i really like the looks. You can also put a few more horses on as well. Duf
