    Kevin, the boat ran great over the 4th! I was surprised at the attention it gets on and off the lake! Has a little hesitation when you punch the throttle but other than that it ran beautifully. Unfortunately it's too small for my family, just doesn't have the room we need and my kids are more into tubing and wake boarding than skiing. A bigger open bow with more seating is in our future plans, would love to keep this one too but don't have the room.

    I had a mechanic go through the entire boat from hull to motor and everything checked out ok. The only problem it has is the hesitation when you first punch it, think its either a dirty jet or bad/dirty acceleration pump. This is a very nice boat and i'll sell it for a reasonable offer.
