After a little shake down I put er in the wind and off we go . About 20 mins. on plane we all know thats the go or no go part of the trip . She ran perfect and never missed a lick . It is powered by the famous 470 series merc, 180s . I had a pair in a 27 Sea Ray Amberjack and got to know them pretty good . Actually a very good powerplant made for marine use instead of a car motor. Any way after we left the ICW going west into mobile bay i let her run . This old girl never missed a lick . 88 miles with zero issues. Thats a first for this old dog. When we tied her up to my dock Mr. Jim said she might be a hand full for him. He is 74 and having a knee replaced. Well you can guess the rest . I bought it and never had to leave my dock . I know that by todays standards this old gal might not be what some desire but thats just fine . Im 66 years old and own a successful Honda and Acura service facility in Mobile Al and have been there for over 30 years, so life is good .
As far as the boat Im pretty sure this will be the last one . Its in the water at my dock in fresh water but will be in a lift there soon . We are really looking forward to fall and the beginning of our boating season .
Thanks again and looking forward to hearing from this great group of like minded enthusiast
