I forgot you had a sister thread on the build here on OSO. Damn I look young and handsome in those photos.

Yes i did!. Lots of hours, but like 450 of them were at idle! weird usage profile.

Do you know anything about that particular boat?

No I had not seen that one before it popped up on PBC’s site. It is a good looking boat that appears to have been well taken care of. Must have had a lot of no wake to traverse wherever the boat was mainly used for those type of hours.

Some SE Florida areas have long idle speed areas.

Cumberland isn't the type of place you can put 450 idle hrs on a boat
