Yeah I saw that one and have seen a few posts on other forums regarding it. It is a nice boat for sure. If I were to spend the money on another aluminum and spend that much money I would get Ironwood to build me an REAL offshore boat with way deeper V and lines that look like a glass boat 8-) .

This boat kicks ass on everything I have seen around here and I have been to just about every aluminum boat shop on the Island.

Check out the build thread and read it not just look at the photos. Marty knew his stuff for sure and Ironwood built it from his dreams. This is really a dream boat come to life.

The owner (Marty McMillan) passed away due to a freak accident at sea due to tending the anchor. You can read about it here.

Wow, that's a boat.

He's got more money into rods/reels than my boat is worth.

I have seen that one with the suzukis quite a few times. Very impressive boat. I heard that it was custom made for a guy to target tuna and he passed away. Kind of ironic as the link sculpin posted is the same story.

I wonder what the gas bill is like with 3 300hp engines eh? I guess it has 3 100 gallon fuel tanks for a reason, that's an insane amount of fuel!

oh ya "The Modifier" is a sick boat as well, I love the lines of that boat :twisted:

300 gals isn't that bad... I hold 296! It only really hurts when gas is $5.00 US a gallon! :D

The Northwestern,with the 3 suzukis,s,that is Jerry,s boat and he does have alot of money,you should see his car collection.no need for that much motor,can you imagine the fuel bill.but if i had the money to run a boat like that,probably would.

this cig seem to handle anything it goes through,and makes a ironwood look like a piece of coppied crap,and copy boats are all they are but aluminum, but what would you expect from newyork, i like when people import great boats from florida and california which fall appart as soon as the ugly weather hits them,buy local is what i believe in,r

File comment: i think this boat is a hundred times better than a newyork built ironwood,

so jerry's boat now only has 2 300 hp suzuki's on the back and drained one of the 100 gal tanks and it still does 50,,that is impressive for a 14 tho,pound boat,it has the twin kickers which made trolling in wind very easy,not a dickhead as one lonley idiot would say,get a grip we have real boats with real money invested,and we are not bragging either,hard earned money,now if someone has a problem we can deal with it otherwise be nice as we are not the hackers here,,chill everyone and catch some fish,i want see pics of these monsters r
