I'm going to get it in my next boat the Sea Ray Sundancer.

I never understood why big 40+ powerboats that cost a ton of $$ never come with this equipment. It really prevents you from going places.

No I just want all that equipment at the helm.

I was once in Maine and went on a Lobster boat. From the outside it looked like junk, on the inside at the helm it looked like the Space Shuttle. It's gotta be cool to be able to boat using just instrumentation when needed.

F-that, I would get a 40 Ft. Formula SS with two diesels or something before I got a Sea Ray. That's like having children and buying a mini-van. If I had more $$ to splurge with I'd be in a Sunseeker.

Its cool but scary. I don't like to do it unless I have somebody to watch the radar while I drive the boat. The more eyes the better.

Yea so you can top out at 25? Ray has his forsale www.njsurfer.com Cool boat but way too slow, lots of electrical problems too, not sure what the he11 formula is thinking. The fuel shut off valve is battery operated, that is "power to shut off".

No, that was the year prior. Mike had the hustler and you followed Jerry. And we followed the old guys in the Magnum, that cracked the Jager as soon as we got to LL.

We bes smat people! What were we thinking Oh, that's right, gotta get to the poker run.

Little fog is not a big deal, 212 from the VZ will bring you right to the beach in NJ. The pics you posted, babies!!! We came back from Montauk it was so bad you could barely see the bow, never mind a boat 20' in front of you.

with all the whinning you guys do, is it any wonder I just leave the boat on the lift

whaaa whaaa whaaa....how many excuses you guy got???
