Took a ride on a few tri toons and was hooked. Especially this particular one. It turns amazingly. Didn’t want to take 3 hours to get to Topock so the wife agreed to the 400. I’ll wait til the kids are out of the house to get my speedster, I guess. [emoji2359]

Manitou 25 Legacy. Merc 400.

Curious to know from an owner, not the BSing salesmen. Whats the crusing speed and the top speed. I'am looking at them too. Yours looks like the one to get.

On the test ride we hit 59 at the limiter with the Biminis out. It’s not a light boat in the least. Im not sure where Itll cruise but realistically I’d think 45 ish?

Congrats on the new toon. They just seem to offer the best of everything for cruising on the lake. I didn't know there was a 400 Verado just thought 400R was the next level. Those motors are so quiet you can't even hear them when running.

Yeah most 400s you see are the R variety. This one revs to 6800, the R to 7200.

Saw it at the boat show but didn’t really give it a second look, wife wasn’t with me. Was looking more at Avalon. This is the one that was in the show and I took the wife to see it at Advantage and she was in love (color)... so we water tested it and I liked the performance better than the other brands we rode.

Ran her up for breakfast. Hit some decently rough water on the way back down once we hit the lake. Man what a boat. We love it!!

Nice ride. How much fuel does she hold?

That's the biggest problem with mine. I need bigger fuel tanks!

Holds 47 gallons, I topped it off before we launched. Windsor 2 to Topock and back and I have 28 left per the computer.

That’s about 80 bucks for that trip

I can see myself In one of those, they are definitely designed To give you a comfortable ride and make it to your destination at a good clip.
With your wife on the color looks great on the water.

That's pretty much the same as my Playcraft/350 Mag. I just dump 20 gals in it and I know I even have a little left over if I want to go further.
