Default Going to get my new boat tomorrow!! Pics inside

Hitting the road tomorrow night and driving straight thru the morning to get it, turning around and coming straight home. Gonna be about 20 hours and 1200 miles or so round trip. Can't wait to get her. Current boat is closed bow and I find myself needing more seats so I'm going to buy this 1991 Concord Mach III open bow. Has the same hull as my Magnum II but a different deck and tons more interior room. Gonna swap my mild 350 into this boat then take my other boat apart and redo it and make it a powerhouse.

Yeah I think the guy did run loto some. I've got a Concord now but need the open bow for kids and friends. They do ride great. I think we have about 10 Concords on our lake, all my friends have em and I've grown up on them. The Mach III rides much better than my current Magnum II because it has the gas tank in the floor and mine is behind the back seat. Wouldn't think it makes a big difference but I guess center of gravity plays a big role.

Very cool! Always liked those boats. I think I posted before about an Ohio Concord dealer back in the day that had a demo 24' w/a V-8 JohnRude that used to take great pride in spanking a local 24' Skater w/twin 2.4's.
Wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen the video

Congrats, they look like fun.
