Out with 292 in with 353

Well, i just bought a 353/525 to replace my beloved 292. I loved the 292 and received compliments on it all the time, Blaze paint theme. However, I always liked the 353 with the stuff on it and the way it handled. So with that said, I have two covers, a light weight Carrie Cover and a full canvas cover custom built for the boat. I'd put it in the classifieds, but figured it was only for a 292. Also, I have the Formula bimini top that I have never opened. I had custom mounts made for the windshield so as not to ruin the lines of the boat. It took me four machine shops and several returns to get them right. Pm me if interested, I have pictures. Will change my avatar to a new picture as soon as I get the boat back from the paint shop. The boat is the Hot Rod paint scheme, but my wife decided that her a** would fry during docking procedures due to the black paint on the top side deck. It should be very cool once finished!

You're going to love the 53, I've had mine for about 8 years now and it takes the Summer Saturday afternoon slop at LOTO pretty well.

I've got 502/425 and have thought about swapping them out for 525s before I go to a diff boat, curious what props are you spinning and what kind of speed are you getting WOT.

Thanks
