Finally picked her up yesterday

New boat - Sea Hunt Ultra 225

Loved my prior Sea Hunt so custom ordered this one with all the fixins.

Just installing all the new electronics right now - Garmin 4212, GSD24, TM260 transducer.

Didn't realize how bad it was going to be when I sold my boat back in April.

Congrats.
Very nice boat.
According to some experts I've talked to that GSD24 is said to be the best on the market right now. (aside from chirp technology)
Paired with the 1000watt 260 transducer it should be the cats ass !
You should take me fishing so I can see it in action for myself

LETS GO BRANDON

Yeah, worked with Semperfi on hull truth deciding on best combo. He summed it up about the same way. I'll take some pics when I tuna fish next week and I'm sure we can arrange a trip Ron.

Looks like a nice ride, when do the men get to take her (the boat) out!

Buying new was a joint decision. She selected color and boat layout (rear bench seat, front seat backrests). I selected top, engine & electronics.

My family loves the saltwater and until we can afford a 35' boat, trailering a cc it is.

1st trip yesterday early evening in upper buzzards bay, boy she is fast! Hopefully take her offshore Thursday.
