Just a few minutes ago I asked it if I was off my grounding by Sunday, if it water to go to the lake. It said yes. It's no havi, but it's a break from everything

Where you headed?

I stroked it gently and whispered sweet nothings while nuzzling the outboard cowling... "34 more days, sweet boat, 34 more days....." ;):D


This afternoon I plan to sit in it and make vroom, vroom noises.... :thumbsup:p

Replaced the water pump, spark plugs and fuel filter. Washed the top half. Tomorrow the interior and Hull sides get cleaned.

Some good pre-mix and we are good to go!

Yes, that exact.
They are out of production,, discontinued.
Took 6 months to find a replacement.
Their are a few guys around who are sitting on old stock and was able to locate one.
Ya might want to consider something still being built,, unless I'm mis-informed about this unit.

Thanks for the info.. you are correct. Alpine no longer lists it, and it had quite a few unfavorable reviews. Guess I'll look for something else.

Huge holes to deal with if you go to another brand probably.

I buffed mine out with some Pro Sauce, lathered up the interior with Vinyl Sauce, and drenched the thing in Condition Sauce while wearing my New Boat Bling shirt!! Also put 15 lbs in the rear right!
