I changed all the fluids Sat. fixed the gas gauge, figured out the GPS.. then Sunday we put almost 60 miles on her .. (Lake Michigan)
I think it handles the waves very well IMOP, comes out of the water a bit when going faster. I was taking it really easy out of the hole.. probably too easy but I wanna take it slow at first
This is kinda my first boat, I`ve had a Jet ski for the last 10 years and a Yamaha Jet boat a few years ago.
So I don`t have much to compare it to.. The previous owner met us to do show me a few things.
I do have a couple of questions
Warning newb zone ahead lol
On some chop I was trimming it down to keep the nose lower to 'cut' thru the waves.. with trim up it seemed to bounce more/ get out of the water. Is that correct to do?
The trim tabs I used only to level the boat
Out of the hole I want trim all the way down right? Then trim up according to conditions?
It took me like half a minute to get on plane? Just addding gas slowly till it got up there..
any tips are appreciated!

I am usually there every weekend, sat and sun weather dependant. I can't post pics anymore as I am not a paying member on this cite, but I have a primarily white 32' Sunsation with purple, yellow and black strips that run along the side and fade into a checkered flag at the transom. There are only a couple sunsations on our side of the lake so I should be easily to spot. We normally park right in front of the water outlet and there are normally a few or a bunch of other offshores parked in a group.
