That must be by the NY calandar. I'm shooting for March 1st this year.

The MD calandar says 7 Weeks to boating season!:drink:

Re: Superboats?
 

I''m usually in by the second week in April.

Light rain / lake fog yesterday, 55 F and 70 mph makes for cold hands - when the rain came I had to stop at the watering hole with Captwk and his 42' Sonic. At least we got out there for a while. Today the cold front is headed north, so we're supposed to see 74 F today, 78 F tomorrow!! Full tank needs to be emptied, I'm sure :).........


RA is talking bikini time. Damn I hate that - will try to send some new photos after this weekend - when the heck am I gonna get those 'winter' projects done????? 39 hrs on Once Bitten, running great and I can tell I'm getting used to handling her in the turns more as I get braver to do faster 90's and 180's........

Maguyva,
I was with John back in 1980. And I was one of the builders of your boat. A quick question. How far is the center of the propshaft from the bottom of the vee ?? Back in the 80's the X dimension was lower then it is today. You might be able to run a shortie on your boat and gain some MPH. And break 90 !!!

Hey Maguyva, good to see some Donzi fans too!

Here's what I sold to get the SB (I still do miss the Donzi)

Re: Superboats?
 

I sold my X18 Donzi yesterday, picking up a 24 Superboat w 300 Johnson tomorrow.

45* and rainy on the Puget Sound, I'm going boating!!!
