Not real fast but Cruises real smooth makes the wife happy.
Ive been told I may not have the biggest on the lake but I have the sexiest.
Anyone know where the windlass controller is located would be a great help.

Soo many questions H20.
How do you like the diesels?
Are they responsive?
Can you repost your first 2 pics? They've disappeared.

I really love your boat. I'd love to own one of those bad boys someday!

At the anchor locker you will see two 3 inch diameter up arrow and down arrow push buttons.

You dash control has the " power on" located right the up down toggle is left.

It will be below your water temp and ignition switches to the lower left of your steering wheel.

Asome pictures Thanks but need to know where the relay box is located. Nothing happens when I switch the control or use the foot pads.

Welcome-

She's gorgeous.

BTW---In call y'all forgot, Texas is home for me, so I guess we are technically +1.

Don't hold my current misfortune in location against me!

Wait, what? What's your current location sailor? I forgot, are you in Texas or from Texas? Because being IN Texas is not a misfortune. I may be an Okie, but Texas is my neighbor and I have lots and lots of like-minded friends there!
