Congrats on you new toy and best of luck with her. Your cost of insurance is in the ball park.

Lose the mufflers and the wheel. I hate those steering wheels. Otherwise, a great boat. The 38 w/ 525's is a great mild package. Reliable and safe

Which steering wheel would you choose FnI?? I like the wheel on the newer Cigarettes. As far as the mufflers they will be gone... I need to get teage switcable tips or new diverters to be able to swich to through prop.

As far as the Mild with 525's. It will be the fastest boat I have ever owned and I am sure I will be fine at 85-90 mph. The newer boats are better suited for 600's and 700's. If I enjoy owning the fountain I will rely on you and the rest of the board to get me in the right power in my 2008 or 2009 42.

Thanks in advance on the wheel pick......
Scott
