Oh the steering is the cats meow. Super tight but super smoothe.

I'm looking for some warm weather and nice water in the northern Alabama area to start the season early. Where would you suggest? We were on the Ohio River in mid April last year.... I'm thinking that probably won't happen this year.

Anywhere to enjoy sunshine in northern Alabama in early April?

Can't swim till late may but plenty of sun and nice water on smith lake but no real destination. No restaurants or things like that. Just rocky lake shores and houses. Pm if you want more details. Also there is the Tenn river but with all the rain it looks like mud and strong currents.

Nice. Got my 292 out yesterday. She goes into the shop today for some minor fixes, computer tweaking, and sending out port supercharger for a refresh.

They are running great. Had one blower refreshed last year so I figure I'd get the other done. You can always find me on the boat between Destin and Orange Beach.

Did you do any internal mods with the pro chargers?

What were you're final speed numbers. Comfortable cruise and top end. I seriously want to go the 383 route and try for 400 to 425hp per side. The blower whine is not my cup of tea.
