Thanks for the warm welcome! I do believe that the members here are a tremendous resource for a novice like myself and look forward to the ride!
Mtnbykr2, what model icom are you using?
I will definitely take the advice to heart and buy the radio form west marine as well as the extended warranty.
Taggermike,
I am already seeing what you are talking about as far as getting things figured out as to what I truly need and where to place or carry it!
I just finished making some rod and gear leashes last night after seeing the postings about making your own and saving a ton of cash
Thinking about making a move over to the big bay soon so if anyone would like a little novice company please let me know?
Again thanks to all and tight lines to one and all!!
