No replies? Does this mean this boat make does not exist? I kinda figured it was a scam.....anyhow.

I got one. I dont have any recent pics....17.5' shallow v, medium/light layup. I think it is made by the same guy that makes Gambler Bass Boats (Bob Ackerman) in Florida. Closed shop 1985. Mine is a 1979. I also seen pics of a P/F.

Hey Forty.
Thanks for the picture...I saw this one in the boat trader also...Just hoping I could find a picture of the jet version.
Hey Mike,
What is P/T and MIB? Sorry I am new to these things....
Thanks again,

Here is a link to the website It is a MIC not MIB (my mistake)
and it is Bob Ackerbloom not Ackerman
and a P/F is a picklefork
