My new to me trawler

After a year of looking and lusting, all the stars lined up and the perfect (for me) boat reached out and grabbed me!! With a look what I found from Pack Mule' a call to a local broker I had met in FL., there was a walk-through by the broker, conformation that it was as listed an offer was made, negotiations were complete in about 5 min. Great boat most systems had been up-dated in last 2 years. Could not be any more pleased with the boat. I guess I owe pack mule a bottle of his favorite rum (the free kind)

Very nice, jimbob! If that's a claw I see on your bow (it's cut off in the pic), you might just love it in the river mud. Mine works perfectly for me in the CA Delta and SF Bay.

You'll be making some great memories on your new, perfect boat. One pic is not enough for us, though. We need detailed pics!!

If memory serves me correctly, Pack Mule is more the wino type rather than a rum bum.

Congrats on the new member of your family!

As long as it's free it doesn't matter. And no that is not a gin nose just oversize .

Got my first tour of an Eagle 32 just about a month ago. In 32' I think it's the nicest package Ive seen yet. Even Eric can live with that fly-bridge! Close 2nd would be Halvorson Gormet Cruiser.

You could really make those of us who are very impatient to see pictures happy if you would just post a link to the existing listing....
