I haven’t don’t one yet honestly. I know about the club but I’ve never had a big enough boat to run with them lol.

They do but I only let them pump my beater 96 Tahoe or my girls jeep. Every other truck i own is diesel which is self serve and I don’t let them get to close to the boats.

Next big step is to find some drives

thanks. I’m tossing up going with ssm v’s with boxes as I found a set not far from me, arnesons if the deal is right. Or just save up for some #6s. Either will be a lot of work but worth it in the long run I think. Especially the 6s

Ugh I’m drooling. I love a clean transom set up too also another reason I’m leaning towards them.

For it's age, the boat is really really nice. It has a few blems here and there that id love to have gone through but the custom paint definitely makes it hard. Another downfall to the sixes is all the transom work that’ll need to be done. But most guys I’m seeing with a solid color transom does keep the boat nice and clean looking. Since I’m doing most of the work myself I’ll probably end up just painting the transom all black to keep it simple.

I think a black transom would actually look nice. I get why they did it in green it flows with the graphics but black will also flow from the engine cover down the back.

I agree, I think id probably end up re powder coating the swim platform green too. Maybe even do the drives green. Do people powder coat the 6’s or paint them typically?
