Duane-Thanks. I am finally getting to experience the ride of the Sceptre and really liking it! I am ready to roll for those gag!

Strick-Thanks for the comments. The 23 hull really is amazing. The boat is incredibly versatile. The family boating time just got kicked up a notch for sure.

Sandy-I have a no eye deer also! Thanks for the VRO info. We changed out pump and it is working now.

The shake down cruise didn't go real well..........motor dies at idle and when put in gear. Just about hit the dock 6 times. Gotta love the guys at the ramp, everyone is an expert! She did fly even on less than 6 cylinders with a Michigan 15x15. No trim tabs. Tabs are less needed with the nice balance provided by the weight of the cabin. I will be checking spark 1st and carbs last. Carbs are plastic! Front axle finally is breaking. It looked pretty bad but was working.
