Well she's gone... I hope the new owner has as much enjoyment I had on the Fighting Angel! I had that boat since 1997 and totally rebuilt her from stem to stern it was a "labor of love" and she won me a lot of tournaments as know by many she was/is a fish raising machine! I also made a lot of friends over the years on that boat and I enjoyed the company of good friends and family and will look back on all the memory's with a sullen smile! We went out with a bang this picture was taken on the last trip offshore last fall we had 5 Whites on with 3 guys in the cockpit! it was an awesome trip.

Jimmy,

Congrats on the sale, it must have been mixed emotions for you. Do you have another boat in mind or are you taking a sabbatical, from boating?

Btw, don’t be a stranger, here or at the AC Rendezvous.

Br,

Jimmy,

I share in the "mixed emotions" of selling the best boat ever built. I still have the video of you guys catching all those fish from Fighting Angel. Good luck with your business.
