Nice going there.

U must be the quickest at getting a new purchase into the water. I assume it must have had all its papers in order, COF etc etc. Often the sheit and frustration starts once you have bought it and just want to get it into the water, but have to first go throught the "process".

I would not like to see your boat chasing you down that driveway on its jockeywheel....;):)....keep some bricks handy...:)

nice boat man, same as ours... i actually have been on your boat before. we looked at buying her around 2 and a half years ago :)

we love ours, remember lots of bow up trim with the following sea for lat. stabilty or she surfs and dips her nose to much especially if her fuel tank is full up front..

see you on the water soon.. what you going to call her?? Her name was just Nenya when we were looking at her.. see its changed.? they great boats and you can do tons of mods and add things over time, plenty of fun!

congrats on getting her and hope you love her us much as we love ours!

thanks! yeah she is a great little boat, must just get used to her handling! I have fished on a couple of the older model ski crafts and they were awesome boats, great at handling the sea and carrying a load!

the owner put the wee in front of the name when he got his bigger boat recently and then named the bigger one nenya.... as for changing the name, i will do that towards the end of the year, dunno yet what i will be calling her!

what is the name of your boat?

yeah, the four strokes make a big difference, will prob get away with carrying 150 litres of fuel for a run to the deep!

must look at running out together sometime.... what engines have you got on yours?
