Welcome to the largest gathering of ARIMA boat owners anywhere. We are a forum based gathering of Arima Boat enthusiasts that like to pleasure cruise, fish, camp, and hunt. While Arimas are centered in the PNW, we have members across the globe. It is 3/4's water after all. Lurk, join up, and post about your Arima upgrades, family trips, and of course, your fishing exploits. Just remember to add photos whenever possible.

MY friend snapped this pic at everett yesterday.  He's so smart, he waited for me to back up so the brake light would illuminate part of the frame!  Pretty neat pic.

(also it was a crazy nice day and good fishing)

My boat turned into a sleigh pulled by a lone reindeer this season...also the first time using the canvas (which is very nice on a misty evening).

The lighted boat parade was a one day event for me, so I just use a pocket inverter I picked up at home depot when I bought the reindeer (which is now in front of my house). I then ran an extension cord though the cuddy and out the hatch on the bow to light up the deer.

I was nervous of draining the battery, so I "reved" the engine often during the parade.

In response to GregE im posting some pics on my Arima adventures last summer and this winter.  :party:  Since purchasing the 19HT in the spring, we have had her all around the Gulf Islands surrounding Vancouver Island, caught a lot of Halibut, salmon, prawns and crabs and even spent a few nights on her with my wife :)  Beautiful boat - you guys were right, once you get an Arima, you wont go back to another brand of boat!

Hi Greg E - in response to your question, we launch out of Esquimalt Anglers (just outside of Victoria). Used to trailer to Pt Renfrew, Sooke, Bamfield but eventually discovered the fishing is often better off Victoria and so nice to drive 10mins to get home after a day of fishing. Im going out tomorrow morning - the winter springs off Constance Bank have been crazy this winter!

GregE

thanks Eivin,  probably will never see the place but inquiring minds........   :wink:

That's quite a snow load BC,  hope your supports hold up.

The nice thing about the Island is you know the snow is gone in a few days!  Time for a spring cleanup and get out on the water .

With two adults 24mph if it's calm enough. Don't use it much any more,just pull it out to start the engines on the hose. Toying with the idea of selling it
