Aboslutelt gorgeous boat. Looked it over at Skaterfest. Congrats on the purchse. Ronnie, do you still have the 388?

Tborisch 01-15-2014 05:47 PM

Congrats! Enjoy it! That's a sweet boat... Race ya :)

rleestma 01-15-2014 07:12 PM

Funny Tom - believe it or not I my office is just south of gezon parkway on Burlingame - name of company is ISI, I've been mening to stop by and see your shop - funny to think it was rigged at 68th street ha! I live on green lake

rleestma 01-15-2014 07:17 PM

Been looking for a year, didn't see myself going all the way initially but I figured spending good money once is better than spending good money two or three times

Tborisch 01-15-2014 08:25 PM

It's a great boat, do you have much experience big offshore stuff?

Boat Customs isn't my shop. I'm invested in it somewhat, but it's owned by Chris mills. Low Altitude is over there right now, getting cleaned up for next season.

My shop is on Roger B Chaffee.

This may come as a shock to those reading it, but I'm new to the sport. I have 20 yrs boating experience on the Great Lakes and Gulf of Mexico and am comfortable in big water. I own a few boats, but have fairly limited high performance experience.

I'm taking a tres Martin course next week and plan on driving way within my abilities with the intention of building up seat time from there. My objective is not to race, but rather use the boat to get places I couldn't otherwise get to in a timely manner. I have this vision of riding from Muskegon (where I have a cottage) to Chicago, Milwaukee, or New Buffalo. For me, it's all about safety. A bigger boat to me means more control. The mystic hull, from my research, is the most advanced hull on the market and has a coorespondingly stable ride and disposition on the water. Running the motors balls out is not something I want to do, so finding something that is comfortable cruising at the speeds I want to cruise at is important. It's preferable for me to have something built for tolerances beyond what I need, I equate that to control (bmw m, Mercedes amg, etc. etc.). And finally, having lower hours, knowing that I won't be beating on it, is important too. Throw in a great interior, electronics and a couple of nice bikini lounges in the back for the wife / friends etc., and I thought it was the right choice.

Risk properly managed equals reward.

Oh and Tom what's the name of your shop, when I get back from Florida I'd like to take you out to lunch...

fglightning 01-15-2014 09:29 PM

Very cool boat!!! Best of luck with her. Maybe I will see you in Milwaukee some time.

Bryan

rleestma 01-15-2014 09:31 PM

I'd like that. I qualified for the USA triathlon nationals in Milwaukee in early august so I'll be running across then water/weather permitting. I'll be at boyne thunder too if ur going.

jbraun2828 01-15-2014 09:42 PM

Look forward to seeing you out on the big lake. Congrats, beautiful boat.

great way to think, my first boat I ever drove or owned was a 419 formula with triple 502's, just remember when docking SLOW LIKE A PRO. LOL

After watching the vid I am in love . Congrats on a spectacular cat !!

This is the best advice you can give anyone 'Slow like a pro". I will qutoe you Ron before I use it.

That's funny. Sounded like me last year. "I only want to go 100mph……." "I just want to get places……."

Now all I want to do is run the motors balls out…….Trust me, you will change. It changes everyone. :)

SkaterMike82 01-16-2014 09:00 AM

Yup. take all day getting into the slip if you need too.. you have nothing to prove.. It's always funny watching those "Bad Asses" get all pissed when they come cruising into the slip and take a nice big chunk out of the side of the boat.. Or they are backing out and ding a prop on the dock..

Ron! Im counting the days to miami! Heat+boats+good friends=Hell of a good time!! :)

Sounds like fun. I will be down in florida for the islamorada poker run. John Cosker and I are riding with Ron.. Not sure in what now that you bought his boat! :)

Maybe we will cross paths in FL.

I bought a 42 MTI for the poker run last week. It was already down in Miami so no trailering needed.

Cole2534 01-16-2014 01:18 PM

These threads always remind me that I need more money.
