Yah. I have been working non stop. But I have a really good end game in play. So hopefully it will all be worth it. [emoji6]

Right on! Hope you get back to normal quick!

Mike,no doubt about it, these past years you have put on a clinic regarding how to have good times,hard work and raising a family. Interesting looking back remembering all the characters from early on @ RDP. Most everyone is doing great. Well Done.

Mike I am not around much anymore, a lot going on in life right now, but this thread brought a huge smile to my face. I hope you and your family have an absolute blast with that boat; your children will remember these days for the rest of their lives, which is priceless.

Congratulations Mike!!! I just spent a week at Powell, and was a passenger on a 300 with twin 500s most of the week. My boat stayed home which would've normally drove me crazy. Between a good boat driver and the 300 I was happy as a clam, plus I drove her some. She is fast with the 500s (Hi 70s at Havasu loaded up), handled beautifully, and a dream ride. Chere rode in the bow 100% of the time and was very comfortable as well. Seriously jealous man! See you and the new float next week.

Haha!!! That’s not your unit. That’s the new one I “inherited” with the boat. 55’x13’ [emoji14]

My 240 needs to go so I can get you back your storage. [emoji106]

I have one too many boats right now.

That's clean boat, I like the color scheme!

Does this mean you won't be caught sleeping anymore?

That ^^^^ will depend on how the trailer is set up. I've seen multiple trailer types under 300s. Only way to know is to weigh it.

You can try the bathroom scale, (likely over) over 300lb procedure.

Saw 85 with a full tank. [emoji106]
The boat is more fun than I could have imagined. Love having 525’s! I don’t think I will do anything to to it. It’s literally the perfect boat the way it sits.

The gauge says 85 so he went 85. Don’t pee in his cereal.

Congrats on the boat! It’s freakin amazing! Bet the little ones love it!!



Thank you. They love it! We as a family are beyond stoked. I’m really going to enjoy more seat time. I love driving it.

I don’t know on the props, not sure on the trim either … I’m still very conservative driving it. Still getting used to trim and tabs and what is the “happy spot” definitely needs tab input based on where people sit.
