Where did you get the bimini top? I have the same boat I got from KAJ here on the site last year and I love it. I added a 36 volt TM and 3 m-31 batts and mine still does 46 mph! I can vouch for the speed accuracy. it runs in 4" of water! Good luck with the sale.

More weigh = more speed? Go figure.

I had a 240 guy with me once (bow up attitude): on a mirror smooth lake (Lillinoma) I got 52mph! I think it was "perfect weight and water condition."

I shopped around at marinas for one first. They wanted around $500. Ended up buying one from one of the big internet catalogs. I think it cost $160. I put it on myself. Took for screws and 30 minutes.

Hey, I saw that dirt. It's gone! One thing is sure: there are no fish blood stains...anywhere! (you can't get fish stains if you can't catch fish)

In the late 50's, as a teen-ager, I worked at a boat rental company called Haines Fishing Wharf out of the Puget Sound region (Edmongs, Washington). There was one fisherman (Japanese) who ALWAYS caught his limit, including a monster 60 pound salmon which I saw with my own eyes.

There is a talent, a magic which some fishermen have. Believe me.

Danbury.

You gotta live on a lake to justify owning four boats, don't you know? On the other hand, you might be one of those rich people who need to pay more taxes.

This is nutz there is a boat just like this one on ebay right now due to end in about 6 hours and it is up to $10,300.00 and the reserve is not met I wish I would have found this one sooner!!
Personally I think there shell bidding it 10 grand and this one wouldnt sell for 7k so he reduced the price to 6k... failedfisher if you still have this boat I will give you 8k for it!!!

Failedfishers was in better shape. There was signs of heavy rust on the trailer on the one on ebay. failedfishers trailer looks like brand new!
