The Day has arrived !

Well,

12 hours from now, my son will be travelling down from Canada to pick up our newly acquired boat.

How much better can it get??

[Dave K]

...except for some new speakers, couple of amps, ballast system, and about 25 square miles of freshwater.

Wow, I bet you are excited. Hope that you get your new baby home safely.

Nice boat Dave, we sold it new in 2003 and the couple rarely used it, then they traded it in to the car dealer you are getting it from. They didn't use it a lot either. That is a nice 22i, I hope you love it. Tom

Very nice looking 22i - Congrats!

Thanks everyone !!

We really like the color as well. Having looked at it for a day now, we are more and more happy. Empty_boat...Chris was absolutely ideal to work with. Boat is super clean and sounds nice.

Planning to upgrade abit. My son says the boat needs some meanness (if thats a word)?

1. More speakers, another amp and tower lights.
2, Auto Ballast going in. Thanks for the info on ballasts bags. The twin 565lbs Pro X gravity games sacs fits very well in the side/back lockers. The 650 intregrated sac gets ordered Friday. Probably will have to experiment with some lead.

I was alittle concerned of the width of the boat and the width of the wake, but after looking at it closer the gunnels are tapered out giving a wider beam up top but narrower footprint. Were excited. Boat gets launched Friday evening for a quick trial run.

Cheers everybody and have a great weekend.
