Docs and I have decided it is no longer feasible for me to Kayak safely.  I have been holding out hoping that I would be able to, but no luck.  So with that said, I am going to start inventorying my gear and putting together a package.

Basically I need to sell everything:

Hobie Pro Angler with Turbo fins, electronics, tournament rod holder setup, electric wheel-eez (project not completed yet), rods, reels, and utility trailer.
Locking hard box for the trailer (not mounted but in garage) holds almost all the gear.

I am sure there are people on here that will vouch for how I kept my gear and my trustworthiness.

Looking right about $2800 for everything.  Please msg me on Facebook as I am not able to be active on these forums without getting too emotional. 
Eric Rhetta is me.

+1 That sucks to hear you are packing it in. How do you feel about mascot jobs? You wouldn't have to do cartwheels or anything.    :-0

I've been wondering how things have been going with you, so I'm glad to hear from you, but saddened to hear that you have to give up a sport you so obviously love. I echo Ling Banger and INSAYN's thoughts - if and when a time comes that you can be with us, we would love for you to join us on the beach.

Eric's got some serious mojo going on that PA14, so any of you looking for one - this is one to get.

Keep hanging tough, Marine!

That really sucks.  I hope  things  improve and we get to see you out there soon.   We would love to see you at the ORC too.

I really miss this group, but if things go well, I will be getting a big boat and be able to fish safely and mothership at least one or two of y'all.  I'll run around ORC as a safety boat or something...who knows...I am optimistic.

I finally broke down and asked a friend to help me take her down and get some photos taken.  I posted in a gallery on FB....I hope this link works.....https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10203467987472651.1073741839.1002165688&type=1&l=065213effc

I would like to see in the $2800 range for everything in the pics....ALL my gear, tackle, storage box, straps.... everything...(except the jeep ;)

I have offers for the trailer already if somebody wants everything except the trailer. 

I really would like to see it go to somebody with as much passion as this group has.

If there is no interest in a while, I will work on breaking up gear into smaller packages. 

Tight Lines friends....

I know you are not including the Jeep, but I have to ask. 
What's the spec on it?  Year, mileage, 4wd/2wd, auto/manual?

Eric, so sorry to hear this. Really hope you'll pop in at ORC with the Power Boat and visit you many NWKA friends.
