Greetings S&F

[Jim Gibbs]

Hey Y'all, Been lurkin' for a while and really enjoying the site. I stumbled across an old friend on here, Gary Slagle, and knew that I had to sign-up. It has been a lot of years since I've had a tears-in-the-ears boat, but I keep a stable of modestly quick fishin' boats. I'm presently keeping a 19' HOOG flats skiff w/ XR6, 22' Sea Chaser tunnel bay boat w/ 175 Pro XS and a 26' TriToon w/ 225 Honda. I run a Striper charter fishing service on Lake Murray, SC, when I can steal time from my full time indenture as a customer engineer in the IBM world. I really appreciate the depth and breadth of knowledge represented here and hope that I can be a usefull contributer if given the opportunity. Thanks to the admins for an awesome site.

Take care, Jim

Phillip, I can't get the little skiff out of my head. I passed your contact info onto a friend who owns Charleston Marine. Hopefully, he contacts you. Shoot me some pix when you get a chance.Thanks and take care.
