I've been wondering what was going on with this boat. When do we get to see the final pics, performance numbers, etc? Nice milage btw.

sommerfliesby 07-30-2013 09:17 AM

Wow! Yeah, I meant to email you and ask if it was done yet! We need MORE PICS!!!!

The new(ish) dash is sick! Great update.

Whoa! Split shifter/throttles? You'd think you are on a Cig or something. Good thing that setup wasn't on mine. Coming from a Fountain, I'd probably be grabbing the shifters like they were throttles or something!

Good move on the repositioning of the trim/tab rockers. I keep bumping the trim switches when I go to hit the tabs due to the vertical placement.

565's? Looks exactly like nothing else..............

boatfreak 07-30-2013 09:35 PM

Wow she looks great. I'm loving that interior.

I like the tan interior, looks great with the red. Let's see the side shots now! Always keeps us waiting!

Yep. And I am very impressed with these engines. Very strong. Very efficient.

what kind of speed vs 525?

sommerfliesby 08-06-2013 01:22 PM

C'mon Pat and Brian....I wanna see some pics of the whole boat!

jmeng 08-14-2013 09:10 AM

Hey guys, is it top secret or what? Or don't want to share number or pics until everything is dialed in? How am I supposed to dream about my future boat if I don't know how fast it runs. LOL Seriously, would love to see more pics of this rig and hear some details on speed, props,etc with the 565's. Definitly seems like a perfect package.

jmeng 08-14-2013 09:56 AM

That interior looks GREAT. 90.7 is pretty strong for that power!

Sydwayz 08-15-2013 01:08 PM

Like I said, about 112. :D

I am pleased. We weighed in at close to 11,000 lbs. Crushed 3-5s going across. A few 6' holes around West End. Only issue was a cable on my MP-3 player that kept losing contact right in the middle of "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk"

Left, left, left, right, left......

TDSTYG 08-15-2013 09:42 PM

That's awesome

boatfreak 08-16-2013 06:23 AM

Beautiful cabin.
No flying hatches on this trip?:party-smiley-004:

With all the gas you've gone through this summer those 565's would practically pay for themselves as efficient as they are. Who knows maybe you could afford a boat with AC.
