Just picked up a 357
 
As the title states I just purchased a 357 just waiting for some warmer weather to pick her up and get her in the trailer. Right now it is stored under a cover on a lift under a boat house. Any recommendations or suggestions?
Thanks,
Damien

Pull back the hammer, hold with both hands, aim and squeeze the trigger ;). Congrats on the new ride! :)

That one appeared to be very well taken care of. Good luck with the new ride!

GOTUBCH 03-06-2015 05:40 AM

I can not wait for this winter weather to break so I can get her to my house to make her mine with some little things....plus a couple additions I want to add.

masi242 03-06-2015 04:28 PM

Very nice looking, it looks to be well taken care of .

I saw the ad for that boat. Looks pretty nice. The red color is nice too. I like it better than the more pastel looking colors.
Mine is the pastel looking Palm Beach graphics but we like that our 242LS and 357 are matching twins.

Great looking 'bird.

Welcome

Fastninja434 04-02-2015 11:20 AM

Nice!!!!

Inrecovery 04-03-2015 06:53 AM

Nice colors! You will love the way it handles big water. if needed!

GOTUBCH 04-06-2015 07:26 PM

She runs great in rougher water... Running next to a 312 Fastech she seemed to be planted much more

aquaforce 04-08-2015 07:03 PM

The new bird is looking great.
I'm sure your 357 would plant more than a 312 since it has a step in it. Even though it is just one it makes a difference from a mono hull carving a solid trough in the water. I noticed how much more solid and even rigid my 357 rides compared to a stepped 382; quite a difference.
