Ron,
Going to be a wet drive going back to Mississippi. Good thing you brought a boat with you.

[megalops]

I think I'll stay home and start planning out this new acquisition.

Hey Ray - thats an intertesting hull. Great looking gelcoat. How much does it weigh empty? With 16 inches of beam there should be lots of room for engine setups.

Andy's boats are well known for their quality. It weighs just a touch over 7 lbs.

Yep, all the markers are there.

I'm glad to hear they are staying put. I'm gonna test and tune down here this weekend. The pond is nice and full...

[bill34207]

I think all the ponds in the area are pretty much full now. We've had a butt load of rain between Debbie and Isaac. Think I'm going to go flying for a while in the morning. Light winds from the east make it ideal for planes at SRQ.
