I wanted to get back over to Hayden, Idaho and visit my new boating partner, Mark’s Marine. We met earlier this year and did a walkthrough of a Thunder Jet Luxor at their dealership, to see the layout of the boat and talk about how it would be outfitted. We went through everything from the Mercury outboard motor package and Minn Kota bow mount electric. The boat would be set up with Gamin electronics, both at the helm and in a special box being built at the stern. It will have Scotty downriggers mounted on the gunnels. At first I was going to pass on the Garmin Live Scope, but after fishing on Drano Lake and seeing that the majority of the boats were using this type of electronics, I decided to add this to the boat, too. Both Aaron Thykeson and John Calder spent a lot of their time with me going over the details of the boat and introducing me to more of their service department and boat rigging people and others in the sales department. Everyone made me feel very welcome to Mark’s Marine. We are planning a trip to the Thunder Jet factory later this month. Can’t wait!
