There was a break line leak right at the controller. Fixed and bled, just not sure yet if I am going to put the box on or not.

fish...you crack me up. where do you come up with these pics? that river loop thing looks fun. our loud exhaust would pry piss the crownline people off..haha would be a fun weekend tip though.

as far as build quality...i have no idea. so far only a couple guys have had problems that ive seen on here and i only saw a couple stress cracks up by the fairing. not too bad for a 17yr old boat that has spent its life on LOTO and the great lakes.

The loop run is pretty cool. It was always put together by Grand Sport. The launch ramp gets a little crazy because there are only 2 lanes. Kind of cool to see dowtown Chicago from the river side if you never did it. A lot of no wake when you are downtown, otherwise you go pretty good distance without having to shut down.
You have to be carefull if it rains a day or 2 before the run. You will be dodging floating trees. One guy ripped his drive off one year.
Been out more than once on the river where they were pulling a dead body out of the water.

Hey Verbie, this is the same waterway where your boat is. Only a few sets of locks to go thru...

Sounds interesting but I think I have to figure out all the buttons and levers first before I go and play pinball with a bunch of other boats floating around me.......could be fun though!!

Verbi, you'll find your 380 to handle like a dream. Both engines at idle and work the shifters...don't get the drives up too high or they won't hook-up. Cross wind and you may need a bit of throttle too. I'm sure you would have volunteers to ride on your boat...they make the best docking fenders!

It will be an interesting learning curve which I cannot wait to undertake....thanks for the info.
