New Haynie Pictures
 

I have seen pictures posted here and in the boating forum, admin feel free to move if neccessary.

My wife and I went down to Chris's yesterday afternoon and picked up our (my but don't tell her) new boat. Ended up buying a 24HO with a Verado 300. Options included 36v trolling motor, 3 bank charger, Talon anchor system, 2 livewells with air, jack plate & trim tab (these are actually standard), 8 foot front deck, insulated front ice chest, racing seats, back seats with leaning bar, Garmin 740s, marine radio, fusion radio with 4 speakers and amp, LED lights throughout, LED lights underneath the boat, hard surfaced lids (not the white plastic), deluxe console, pop up cleats, console storage box.

That's a sweet looking boat.

Man look at that boat. Sweet!!!!!!

sweet boat Casey!!! let me know when you bring it to hackberry, I wanna see it in person

Thanks guys, I need to get it down to the camp in Hackberry before the HOA here kicks me out of my house for having it on my property. My oldest son has two basketball games today so it may have to wait until next weekend.

Josh we will have to take a trip this spring.

very nice looking boat ckinchen. Love that color

All I can say is Bad Arss

saweet......not it's time to SLIME the deck!!

Not sure if the house or the boat has the bigger WOW factor! Both are very nice! I bet that 300 will shove that boat across the water with the greatest of ease!

Great purchase and great color selection!

SWEET........ Got to see how fast we can get it up too....

Sweet boat bro!

I am intrested in that as well. I have that huge front deck like your boat has and I have been told that will cost me 2-3 mph plus my console is raised just a bit. They put a 4 blade bravo prop on it which will probbaly get me up quicker and help with turning but may cost me a bit on mph. I bet it will end up being only a couple miles an hour faster than your Z21. They are estimating 68 at best in perfect conditions so probably 66 day in and day out but we will see, I can't wait to find out.

You got the 8ft deck? I had the 1st Haynie made with that size deck.... I dont care how much it takes off the speed...You can not beat it!! Fish two and even 3 very well

That's prob one of the sweetest color Haynie I have seen. Nice rig man!

Tax write-off. ;)

Sweeeeet boat Casey! Awesome layout and love the color.

I agree with you, yes I went with the 8ft deck. They had a couple built with a deck that was so small it was basically non existent.

Of the 20 or so boats on their list ot build and or rig I would say 15 of them were the 24 Cat version for fishing in very skinny water.

Thanks for the postive feedback, I appreciate it. My wife is still not sold on the lower sides (compared to my Blue Wave) but I think once she rides with me in rough water she will be sold.

Man that is a sweet rig

oh man i love boat porn

that's top shelf! congrats ;)

Nice boat bro...

Love the boat! looks a lot like what I plan to have built by Chris.

Can you post a pic of the console layout?

Sent from my EVO

Congrats! Nice lookin' rig. Like to hear about your decision on Talon v. power pole....I'd also lean to 2 v. 1 - no spin!

is it possible to do a rocket launcher/grab-rail add on to seat rail?

SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mighty fine

cant wait to hear how that talon works

X2 and BTW, very nice boat. Congrats!

nice!

Wow!! Nice boat man that ting is pure awesome!

Love that battlewagon gray color.

I am going to bring it down to Hackberry in the morning so I will post a picture of the console per the request above. I also will keep you guys posted about the Talon.

LA-Angler I think they can do just about whatever you want from an aluminum perspective as they buy/send the boat over to a shop that does the aluminum/metal work for them. It is hard to know what they can and can't do since there is not a catalog or complete list of options (that I am aware of). They seem to be open to/do try just about anything with these boats. I have the name and number of the shop from the sticker that is still on my racing seats.

Console
 

Paul, per your request attached are pictures of the console. They were taken tonight so I hope you can make everything out.

Thanks for the pics. I was wondering how they had layed out the console and installed a glovebox. I want to put a tackle locker where your glovebox is. I really like the whole package they put together for you.

Beautiful boat!

Beautiful boat but I hope you never need to use the vhf with the antenna the way its mounted as handheld would work as well with it that low. You may also knock out the Garmin when you key up the vhf. The Vhf antenna shoulf be mounted on the handrail on a fold down or something. The antenna whip itself is also grounding out to the rail. I am not knocking the boat as I think its beautiful I just hate to see a brand new boat unsafe before it even hits the water.

I had the same question, at one time I had a ham amature radio license I can't imagine that antenna would do well being mounted that low. I asked the guy at Chris's and he said it would talk great and that was where they mounted all of them. It matters to me because I fish offshore alot with my family during the summer.

Believe me the guy does not know what he is talking about if he thinks that is right. You may talk great to someone across the street but a couple miles away its useless. I would get a rail ratchet mount on the right corner of the console rail. This way it can be folded down when not in use.

That thing is sick!

Need another son?

VHF is "line of site".
You want the top of the antanner to be the highest point on the boat.

U FUR REEELLLL??:*****::*****::*****: I dont even have one...So is my boat unsafe?? I do have a Cell phone that will send a text anywhere in the world...:shaking::shaking:

Looks like u need a translator agin. He did not say it was unsafe, just said you would only have reception transmission about the same as a handheld with the thing mounted so low.:D

:shaking::shaking::shaking::shaking:

How'd I miss that?:work::*****:

Man that is a hell of a boat. Congrats... Love the color too.. The boat I just got is grey also on the inside. That grey is very easy on the eye. Cuts a lot of glare. Enjoy your new ride. P.S. A buddy of mine put the Talon P-pole on his boat a couple of months ago and loves it. Works well from what i've seen

He is looking to fish other places besides the weirs where your text messaging works fine W.
