Didn't have a launch pic handy. This was taken about 2 months after, August 2014.

Re: Spalshed the Honey Badger.

Most excellent Salti

If I were looking for a new boat, your ride is just what I'd be looking for. Love the way you can tow it down the road behind a reasonable, non-herculean vehicle.

Please post more pictures!

Re: Spalshed the Honey Badger.

Nice job! That is a pretty boat.
Shouldn't you have backed a little closer to the water before you launched it?
