Free Prowler 13
 

Well, after 12 years of faithful service, I have upgraded from my Prowler 13 to a Trident 13.

I would like to get rid of my Prowler while giving one of our local heroes a chance to get into this great sport. Here's the deal. I will give away totally free of charge my Prowler 13, including seat and paddle and various other add ons to the first active duty military person who wants it and is able to get to Mission Viejo to pick it up.

As mentioned before, she is about 12 years old and well used. She is not too pretty but entirely sea worthy, and water tight. She is plumbed and wired for a bait tank, including an in hull 500 gpm Tsunami pump, if you have the desire to build a bait tank. She has the normal built in rod holders and one Scotty mount and one Ram mount should you have the desire to add more holders or sonar. As on many of the early Prowlers, I developed some pin hole leaks in the keel area from dragging it over sand and gravel. After several repairs by plastic welding, which only worked for a while, I finally fixed it by applying aircraft grade carbon fiber and epoxy on the keel. Now, when dragging it over , it scratches the asphalt.

I want to give a very special thanks to Andy (Iceman) at OEX. I was at his shop getting some rigging done on my new sled and mentioned my plan to give my old one to a local hero, he was quick to donate a seat and paddle to this deal. I will add that he didn't just grab them off the top of his rental seats and paddles. He spent some time digging through his used inventory to pick the ones that would best suit a kayak fisherman.

If you are and active duty service person and want this Prowler 13, and can come pick it up in Mission Viejo in the next couple days, PM me or text or call me at 949-306-2581.

Damn that's really cool of you.:you_rock:

Nice!

Great timing with all the heroes coming back into country. Saw some on this board looking for info on yaks, gear and good intel for local fishing. Someone is going to score on that deal. Awesome gesture!!

Just wanted to add a thanks to my son Troy (Zed) for getting me into this crazy sport because it's easy (yeah right) safe (yeah right) and inexpensive (yeah right). He gave me his first hand me down Cobra Navigator and then arranged for me to get this Prowler at considerable expense to him. He is in complete agreement in disposing of it in this manner.

Very cool of you to help someone out like this!!!

OUTSTANDING of both you and Andy!!! Looks like a great seat he threw in.

Rossman,
Nice, :you_rock: and Andy, :sifone:

And we know the yak is fishy.

I'd be willing to be that kayak has had more fish come over its rails than any other in the OC.

Super cool move Ross :cheers1:

For the guy that picks it up, hit me up. I have an older vittles vault bait tank, 6V battery, and a hand bilge pump you can have.

That is a great gesture. Thank you.

BIG UP to you GOOD SIR AND OEX!!

MAY THE FISHING GODS ALWAYS BLESS YOU WITH THE BIGGEST AND BADDEST FISH!!!!!

That just makes me feel good all over...I think I'm gonna cry!

Good job boys and a big thanks to all of our hero's:luxhello::luxhello::cheers1:

Great gesture and way to say thanks in a way that will bring back some great
fish stories and postive memories! :you_rock:

Hats off to Andy and the OEX Crew for always stepping up!:cheers1:

:you_rock:

Such an awesome gesture.

Oh come on! You're already in his code group you don't have to ass kiss.
;)

We discussed the options, and this is the best one. I hope it goes to a happy home. It's been a very good boat.

I have an aluminum gaff and net I will throw in.

You're awesome dude! If I ever meet you, I'll buy you a beer. An Import Beer even!
