Entry Description
Photo was taken as I was putting in my 231 Heritage, we were prepping for our run to the Snapper banks the next morning. The Sunset in the background framed the picture up very nice.
Favorite Feature
The best thing I like about my 231 Heritage is the engineering and design. This is a full on fishing machine but it was an easy sale because it transforms nicely into a family boat. The boat is awesome for heading to the Snapper banks and burns very little gas. It also does great getting back in the skinny water for Reds and Trout. When the family wants to go to the beach or riding, I throw in the cushions an everyone has a comfortable place to ride. With 6 kids room and space to function was a big issue for me, but we all have plenty of room. My wife and daughters love the freshwater rinse off they say they don't like the "sticky feeling". The Yamaha 250 is super quiet and it quick out of the hole. It will go faster than I ever want to cruise! We have really tested the boat this summer, I bought it in May and already have over 120 hours on it. It is currently in at the Dealership getting the 100hour service and I'm having a second SIMRAD 7 inch installed.
