My Grouper Special Special

[Maxed Out]

It's a narrowed black 4/0. I used 99 posts, a tank top custom narrow seat, and a 66 spool. The chrome spool will be replaced by stainless.

  This used to be an impossible build, because no narrow seat was available.....till now.  .

Do you have a photo of it next to a standard width?  Also, it should be shown as TANK TOP!!! 😜  Your stuff is killer friend.

I'll bet I know somebody that could use those YTS black seats. Looks very nice Ted! Great work.

Too late Lou, I'm already there !!  

Yours are heading to plater tomorrow

 That narrow seat is loving life on every reel it gets hitched to.

[STRIPER LOU]

Thanks for that! I'll put them to good use!

Ted, Here's my Grouper Special. Thanks for making these narrow Tank Tops available. I'm just posting the exterior photos here. I'm going to post the innards over on Sal's Grouper Special thread.








This photo shows off the superb craftsmanship of Ted's Tank Top frame sets.
