The "new" boat is finally home!
 

Well, After a failed attempt to buy a 312 that was here in the classifieds forever (no wonder why), I found a 353 in Ohio that belonged to a member on here (jimkiav). I drove down looked at the boat and left him with a deposit. Last week bought a trailer from Mike "offthefront".

We left Sunday night and got to Huron, OH about midnight. After a few beers at the local bar we finally got some sleep..... and got up to a few inches of snow.

The guys at Huron lagoons marina were awesome and spent a ton of time in the cold weather getting the boat ready, running for us so we can finally hear it and loading us on the trailer.

oh... and we had it up to 75mph on GPS............................................... .................................................. ........................ On I80 :party-smiley-004:

Very nice boat!!!! You will probably need a a CDL to pull it!!! Lmao

Lol

Yea you def Can't miss it going down the road!

I've been fortunate to have been racing cars for a long time and always pulled a trailer.

Congrats...nice looking boat........

Congrats! Beautiful boat. Where do you typically boat at?

Typically the chain... but looking to do a few trips this year. We will see what time I have

Nice trailer ........:coolcowboy:

You need to go down to the ozarks with us.

boat had a good price..... watched it for a while when a buddy was looking for one... he decided otherwise did not want to buy a bigger truck...

Lake Of The Ozarks (LOTTO) is the best time!! Great lake for a vacation!!!!!!

I also had wondered what this boat was about, glad it found a member here, the 312 u mentioned is that the one in mich? did u go look at it?

The 312 was in MI. It was in the classifieds forever but is no longer there (maybe it sold?) he had it priced right but juts was not that nice.. And what really pissed me off was he didn't disclose any of it to me.

The 353 looks like it was for sale for a long time.. honestly its a really nice boat. just had really bad pics and such. When I saw it in person i was shocked at how much nicer it was than the pics.

Just goes to show that its all in the presentation... I own a motorcycle dealership and we ship all over the country but it is SUPER important to us to make sure we picture the bikes correctly.

I sold my baja within a week of listing it! and i listed the boat in NOV!!!! but... I had it detailed and took a ton of pics and it sold it self.

I had a feeling on that 312, there was/is something iffy there, the 353 definitely had horrible pics and the graphics are the type u either love or hate, take some good pics when u get it home love to see it in better light

yea.. im not huge on the graphics at all... But it was a smoking deal! so a wrap might be in it's future.

I will say that this boat has never sat in water and has been dry racked... The Hull is in awesome shape.

What power in the 353

fixx
 

i get it now,,lol..

fixx
 

chain o lakes?,,nice ride ,,will see you out their..

Lot to be said for original ,without a wrap. if it's as nice in person as in the picture

Bring it up before the season starts I will paint what ever you want.

looks better without snow in the back ground GOOD LUCK

just 502 mags

nahh... not yet at least. Thanks tho.

All im doing before the season starts is a sound system.

Congrats on the new boat.

So FantaZ28 How was dealing with the guys at Huron Lagoons? My sisters looking at a boat there. Just curious what you thought of them?
