Jesus where you going in such a hurry? 60+ yikes!

If i get above 25 with the kids the youngest starts screaming tooooooo fast!

5 -10 is my favorite speed with the pilot seat kicked to the side and the feet in the wife's lap... can hear the music better that way anyway.

My brother just moved up this way from Jersey so I'm certain I'll figure out what WOT will do. Light boat that's got correct power for it's size... now to fix that prop situation... pics on the other string.

Lots of big boats to chase down. We don't go slow too often. Cruise 35-45 most of the time. Kids are all used to going fast Heck our soon to be 18 year old daughter last time out goes catch them. My wife hates loud music so the stereo isn't on very loud most of the time anyways. We have lots of water to cover.

I know some people always carry a few tools and an extra impeller in their boat, but I think it makes more sense to change it every 2-3 years than to count on changing it on the water once it fails. Not to say that I wouldn't still carry a spare on the boat...

Congratulations on the new boat! This is a great boat, I grew up on one, my father still owns it. Think is pristine other than a few reasonable wear and tear marks. What color? His is red strip with red bimini. Fast no doubt. He has the smaller 320 so he's topping 55-56 currently.

For naming I've always been one with quirky humor. My parents named theirs M-T Pockets since the boat emptied them out pretty good.
I dig the clifford the big red boat name.
