Haven't made it up to Quincy yet, but is something we plan to do at some point. I have heard about Hogback Island. Is the big party on labor day weekend (Sept. 5-7) this year?
The camper top is factory and the bimini section stores under the engine hatch. It lays down and large hooks secure it in front of the engines. The front/side and aft curtains store in bags in the cuddy. We love it and use it all the time when sleeping on the boat. I can put it up solo in about 10 minutes, but it is nice to have some help getting the bimini frame attached.

4mulafastech...Did you happen to race an older 251 Checkmate Convincor last year black and white and red ..towards the end of the year. If so it was me! We raced for 20 miles from Johns Harbor past Iowa island and were neck and neck the whole way! We stopped and talked after the race and I did some adjustments and we raced a few more times....was this you? If not that other guy has a boat identical to yours!

Ya I guess you're right, we were'nt really racing untill after Kinders, But I had it hammered since I left Johns to cacth up to you!!!! I saw you go by just as I was leaving the ramp and told my cousin "There's a race for us"! I think you had me by a half a mph. We'll definitly have to do that again!!!

wow a 47.... the biggest of our style boat around here are a few 35 fountains 38 hustler and a 42 formula. we gotta hook up dude. anyways LeClaire has always been a good ramp. and you are so long that your stern will be in the deep stuff. the parking lot is huge and if you get out on the water before 10am you will most always get a spot. are you new to the area? i have yet to see a 47 fountain in our pool. what you got in it and can i drive?
