Time to think about getting the old rods+reels back in good order, so to take that grandkid fishing as soon as old enough.
Congrats!

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
Congratulations!!!

Thanks gentleman...

I'm really hoping for just a healthy baby... first and foremost. But after raising girls... I'm hoping it's a boy. I do lots of stuff I'd love to pass down to someone that wants to learn it. Through experience.... it wasn't our girls.

Congrats!

FWIW, my choptop doesn’t have back seats, was like that when I got it. I don’t have kids or grandkids yet, but there’s times I’d like the seat back there again.

first of all congratulations!

and for the all girl dad.. my wifes dad had 3 children. all girls. all three of those girls children are boys. so it looks like the y chromosome skipped a generation. out of the 4 grandsons, he passed away before the last two were born, but he did enjoy the older ones immensely in their first year.

If you don't have time to do it right will you have time to do it over?
Congratulations, being Grampa is a better job than being Dad was. I grew up less than 2 miles from my grandparents and visited every week, my grandkids lived near Philadelphia and now live outside Washington, DC so we don't see them often enough. I hope you live close to them.

Its probably better to be self deprecating than self defecating.
You can still remove the seats, just build a super sweet pedestal to mount a child seat to lol.
