Splashed the boat finally

Finally got her back from G&R Marine who did the trolling motor install and checked all the systems and ran her out of Westport this afternoon. This boat is far more than I'd hoped for, man what a smooth and dry ride. That trolling motor is the balls too, it pulls that boat far faster than my old Lund would move, that motor has serious balls. Ran half way to Cutty in 3 footers at 4200 rpm and never felt a thing, this is going to be a fun summer.

Trailers like a dream and that drive on tailer is easier to load than my Lund. I just need to figure out the Garmin 188C, deleted all the old waypoints in the system from the previous owner and the first two I saved were points 261 and 262, I'd have thought they would be 1 and 2? I also find it hard to read with my sun glasses on, it will take some getting used to.

Girlfriend snapped some pictures, but not too steady on the camera, so they aren't all that clear. I'll get some pictures up down the road.

Tight lines.
