Nice going Rob. Looks great running. I dont mean to highjack your thread, but I never posted this link before. Here are a couple of fly by passes I made early this year. I was running mid 80's at the time. My friend was filming from his 35 Sonic that I built engines for last winter.

Check out yachtauctions.com. They have a nice 30 Maxxum for $8K! The parts on the boat are worth more than that.

I'm dropping my Checkmate off at Lake Cumberland Marine on Thursday to be brokered. If you want a nice boat for a fair price call Cumberland! I am under the impression they take trades and finance in-house. This is a very nice boat!

I dropped my gal off at Cumberland. I was sad to leave her but she is in good hands. The staff at Cumberland were great-very friendly sales professionals. Here are a few shots of my visit there. The showroom floor was loaded with some top tier performance hardware.

That had to be difficult to do. Good luck with the sale.
