Round 2 for me. I’ve Been guiding out of my 2016 marquesa and could not be more pleased. She is sold. (Though I get to run trips out of her until the new skiff is done)
And now, introducing my 2019 innegra Marquesa. Medium grey hull, Guide green skid. 115 SHO. Got my first pic today... YEWWWWW!!!

I’ll get more into the details as the build moves along.

At least you know you’ll get to ride on it...

Getting a few more images!

My care package from Minn Kota/Humminbird arrived at HB as well. G2 Solix 12 SI, 8’ grey and black Talon, and a 54” 80lb Ulterra.

Looking good.

Can you sketch up the way you added recirc on your live well and share any Lessons Learned.

I never ended up doing a recirc.
I ended up having HB Do a bubbler instead.

As for lessons, I’m constantly replacing 800GPH rule pumps. To better facilitate this I added 2 marine grade quick disconnect clips. They have allowed ZERO corrosion and have held up for 2.5 years. They still look perfect. As soon as I have to replace the first pump on the new skiff I will do the same.
Also, the last skiff had a full array of lighting (under gunnel, in hatch, under platform and in livewell) . This one will as well, but I will be adding one inside the console and there will be 2 lights in the livewell.

Oh, and I’m doing a PTR 19 4 instead of the SCD...

Cockpit liner is infused! I was told this is something semi-new that they are doing to drop a few pounds on the build.

Hey Buddy, you can go download direct to MS directly from ur phone so that Photobucket emblem doesn’t take away from pic. You getting any pompano on fly? (love your skiff, even the old one)

Good looking hull.

Thanks!!! I’m was a little nervous at first. Grey was not my first choice, but my skiff is staying in town and I need something different. I’m loving the look..

 

[Fish_specialist]

Got that first glimpse of the 2 colors together!!

 

[Fish_specialist]

SUPER CLEAN

Sweet!! Congrats!! I’d like to eventually have an Estero also.

It took me some time to decide on the colors. Too many to choose from...
