I miss having a trailerable boat a little bit. Early/late season trips down to the IL river and or the chain. One thing I regret not doing when I had the velocity is actually taking it somewhere far on vacation.
I'm considering Ozarks this year. Never been, always wanted to go.
Anxiously awaiting my Bennington delivery date! Got a spot locked in over in Fox Lake... Gotta get a gear box moved over there. Also need to get to [MENTION=19]Yaj Yak[/MENTION] to get some starter water sports gear!
Never owned a boat before, so this should be interesting!
I like this plan. Lord knows I've got a lot to learn! Speaking of, anyone know the best online place to take the boat test so I can send it to my kids?
Tried to get Peter to throw me a delivery date or an order number... He sort of blew me off and said he would send me something as the time got closer. Makes me nervous a bit.
I'm unsure of best online test... i took mine at CLC back in the day.
Don't be nervous, there is a lot of variables with regards to that order date which is why he's probably not cementing something in stone. The boat could beat the engine to the shop, or vice versa, and then the boat still needs to get rigged & pre-delivery inspected.
Will be going to drag my lund out of the woods soon, will be doing trailer maint. and maybe painting the boat. the red has seen better days
anyone [MENTION=19]Yaj Yak[/MENTION] know any one local to mchenry who's good with old Johnson outboards. we used halings in the past
Those merc 400r's take a while to show up from the factory. Hand made.
