Looks pretty good, to bad I won't be able to see it. I have a new feeling towards PBYs since I rode in one last weekend. Big, lumbering, graceful what more do you want?

Yeah Scott,

I agree...one of my own. But I wonder....what kind of trolling motor would a person use on something like a PBY ? I mean....think of all of the inaccessible lakes you could get into for fishing with your friends. All you'd have to do is cast your line right out one of the side bisters and you're all set. :lol:

Thats really funny you mentioned that. Today we had that same conversation with some fellow MAPS members. Also we had it at the air show. The Black Cat is in our hanger so thats why we were talking about it. Add some bunk beds inside, and head up to Canada for some great fishing. As you said, just cast it out the side. Or you could jump up on the wing and you have a nice 'dock' type area. :lol: If only I had some money :cry:
