Boat Pickin
 
New to Powerboats but 50 years of puddle jumpers around home and a few drag boats mixed in. Runner Bottoms.

I'm buying myself a traveling retirement boat. You can imagine every brand from a Skater to PC Formula. Toughest choice I ever made. I'm hung up on this re done GTX 47 that's white. Got a little cabin in it and 2 fresh 557s with Oliver Rods, coated Je Pistons high dollar valve seats with new twin rotor Whipple's on each. The same money buys a lot of different boats. 3600 nortech, 43 nortechs, 36 Eliminators, cigarettes and all. Within that circle is the GTX an icon of a boat, or just a boat? Of course it's got 6s on it. Snow white. Ok

I’d put this in the general discussion section. It’ll get a lot more traffic and responses there.

I would say and think the same thing. I've spent thousands of hours in a boat seat but faster smaller boats that could be a handful a wot. Last was a checkmate. A blown alcohol runner bottom and keeping up with override pedals is close to the hardest. I was born with a wheel in my hand, no matter the ride.
