Brand new to offshore boats and you want to run 90? Please let me know when you're on the lake, so I can stay at the dock.

I agree with dockrocker maybe you should get some seat time in something a little slower to start or find some friends to ride with a bit, please don't just jump in some hot rod and try to go out wave CRASHING!!! the water is very unforgiveing

I was thinking the same thing. Someone said it already but a 24 Pantera is a good starter boat. 60-70 is a good starter speed NOT 80-90. Good luck PLEASE be safe.
