Default Dockside.......No more! New boat!

Got the call today...just have to sign some papers and get her insured but it was all approved and done.

The wait paid off and I could not be happier. I know she wont be the fastest boat on the water but she should get out her own way just fine and being this is my first powerboat I think it will be more than enough for now. It helps too that it's LOADED with extras.

2004 Sonic 358
496 mags h/o's
441hrs

VERY well taken care of.

Been dealing with Randy from fastboats and I can not say enough good things about him. He has made this whole process easy on me. Also had Ed Cozzi do the survey and he went over and beyond my expectations. All around it has been a lot easier and not so stress filled to get this deal done.

Now comes the bad part......I can not get her home till mid Oct sadly as I have too much going on at the time to get away and then am gone on a vaca for 8 days....so not going to pick her up untill I get back.

Congrats Nate. Too bad, couldn't get her back sooner. SBI Clearwater coming up. We will be on the water. Hope to see you out there soon.

I've got nothing to do, if you want me to run up and take her out for a bit I'll be glad to do you a favor, no problem.

Nice looking Sonic, should do well in the rough, congrats.

Congrats on the Sonic! I rode on a 35' with 575SC's on a poker run and I loved the ride!

Thanks Peter.

I know, I can't even get out to the races this year. My buddy picked that day to get married. So other than thr fri night event I wont be out there at all.

Would love to meet up one day though when it's here.

Congratulations and if this is your first boat you can be very proud. Some will say "drive it like you stole it"....... I say drive it with respect and she will love you back. Enjoy.

Bob
