Thanks guys! Yeah we are staying pretty busy between work and getting the new house set up.

305 - it looked like ur pics were taken on the west end of the 7 mile bridge...we were on the east end. Would have been fun to get together.

Steve it was kinda funny when I made the first pass I had it on cruise at about 40-45. My brother sent us a text that said "SLOW DOWN" lol.

We had fun with it though and we still need to have a little bay area get together...

I keep coming back to this thread to look at the pix. Talk about a sexy boat. Reminds me of a scaled-down Magnum from the same era. :cool:

Been doing the same thing myself. I'll bet she rides like a dream. Have you taken it out in any kind of rough seas? wondering how it handles in the rough?

Thanks guys...got to give credit to Steve (lost2a6) for making this boat what it is. I am just the lucky guy who gets to enjoy her. Far as handling she rides pretty nice...its a 23ft SC after all :) shes a little stem heavy though so tabs and trim are required to keep the bow down in the rough stuff. We have been out a couple times in 3-4 footers and she knifed right thru it at about 35-40. Actually seems to ride better going a little faster vs 30 or less, I just worry about launching off a wave and breaking something...

Even my slacker likes to run on top, it just took me a while
to figure it out.
