Hey guys and girls, hello from Florida. Its cold here today, but we just got the boat serviced and ready for the warm front to come. I finally got an HD video of the boat, thanks for all of the questions. I know a few members who call me from time to time, glad to help. Enjoy and our northern friends STAY WARM!

At 4:30 Wundergroud says it's 72 and clear in Tampa. Is that cold? Seriously.

Get back on the water.

OK this is my last offer. My boat for the Whaler logos and number plates from yours.

That is a hell of a restore.

Hey Phil, it's been awhile! Actually it's beautiful here, I've been neglecting the boats in storage, starting to pull them out and get them ready one at a time.

Mtown, sounds interesting, I might take u up on that deal. Bradsc, I turn the radio off to hear that sweet merc music at WOT, nothing sounds better to me! I am going to get/post a video of this boat ripping it up. It throws a 60' rooster off the prop at top speed. It's crazy fun.

Nice to see it again in HD, it is almost to pretty to use and it must be a pain keeping in clean in that "cold" salt Florida water. No water here up North it is all hard. Your boat still is bad-ass and I would love to see it running.

We use it for most everything the river has to offer, but mostly she serves as the midnight water taxi to he river bar after the kids settle down, babysitter stays at home while the big "kids" foot the bar and listen to live music.

Just a thought, I'm having the prop tweaked to get about 500 rpm more, wouldn't it be a great Time to start a thread to see what is truly the fastest Whaler? Everyone has a handheld GPS phone/video recorder. No more BS, V-6 cowls on V-4's or 200's with 300 stickers on them....I think this one is a real contender. Any thoughts on a summer challenge?

No contest here, you've probably got 20 mph on me, lol. Can you please post a video of that thing at speed? Mines surrounded by 6 inches of snow today and I need a fix!
