Cool, our cabin is on the cove at Briarcliff. We have the last of three original fishing cabins that were built out there before Briarcliff, the marina, or any of that other stuff existed. Our family has owned the cabin since the 40's. My Checkmate hangs out up there but is usually on the trailer in the driveway.

Both...I have set up several Heats...and I have a 1" shortie on my boat...and have several spacers...I space the lower depending on the water conditions...and what I am trying to do...ie...when I use my boat to pull the kids innertubing...I use a tall spacer( 1.5"), and a P5x...If I am trying for all out top end...on fairly calm water, I use a 1/2 inch spacer (3" below the keel), and a Merc Lab Bravo prop...for general boating...I use a 1" spacer most typically on my boat (3.5") below the keel with 1.35 gears, and a balanced 28 Bravo prop...no lab work done.

Before i bought my 32 open bow sunsation i looked @ envision & advantage. What sold me on the sunny was great cust svc. One call to factory & joe invited me up for a personal factory tour & showed he builds them & answered any questions. Spent 2 hrs with me & i was looking @ used boats only. The 2nd item that sold me was only the sunny had snap out carpet in the cabin, i hate carpet in boats so mine is stored in a tote in the barn. As far as rough water, i give about half tabs & she powers thru smooth as silk. Even the wife loves the ride
