Robert,

280SS? I ordered the 353 Fastech!

Just kidding! Boat is great, Andy arrived around 11:30. Spent the day checking it out and polishing. My wife really likes the layout...much more room than the 242LS

Can't wait to get the paperwork done so I can get this thing registered and in the water!

Chuck

I didn't think to take any interior pictures today...but will post some soon. Currently the boat has twin 4.3 V-6 engines, I think they are rated at 190HP. Alpha I drives. Should be plenty of power to cruise at 25-30mph. However, I reserve the right to add V-8s at some point in the future.

I don't think the Dept. of Natural Resources folks are quite as accommodating in Maryland. One time I was pulled over because the numbers on the side of my boat were "too close together." I hope it will only take a week or two to get the registration processed.

I understand there might be a problem with the fresh water tank that I was not aware of. Please let me know what you find is wrong and I will take care of it. Robert

Congrats Chuck......Robert and I have been talking alot lately (he just got me into a 382!!! ) and he told me that boat was going up to you soon. A local guy had a 280SS that he ran in our Poker Runs and had a great time with the boat.

I see Andy brought yours up here too!

Re: Paging Chuck21401

Congrats Chuck,

Glad to see you got back into something before the season is over. She looks great, can't wait to see interior shots. As soon as you get her into the water, we'll have to hook up for a cruise and some fun.

Again, she's a fine looking boat.

Thanks and yes we will have to go for a run. You'll have to slow down a bit though. These pictures are from Robert's ad on boattrader, left my camera at home with the new pictures.
