I was able to test the boat for the first time since beginning my restoration. Top speed was 42 MPH (GPS) and the new bimini was rock solid. I was very pleased with the performance of the new fish finder and SS prop, both were well worth it. Happy boating! Scott sfergson727 attached the following image: [87.68Kb] Scott 2012 150 Montauk

I can't splash here in Connecticut until 4/18, it's not the weather or the boat not being ready, the crew has threatened mutiny without a trip to Disney! Edited by scrimshaw on 04/06/08 - 5:36 PM

Funny thought about the old trailer. All the rust makes her look even better, if that is possible. Snow is 99% gone, waiting for ramp dock to be installed on/about the 14th. While it will be cold for another month, I have my Carrhartt insulated work suit at the ready. 1992 Outrage 17 I 2019 E-TEC 90, Viper 17 2+ 2018 Load Rite Elite 18280096VT

Phil, we haven't had snow on the ground here for a while but it's still very cold and the wind out of the north east today makes it feel even worse (big seas too). Soon... I keep telling myself.
