    We pulled 16 (8 couples) with the single 225 last night, 16 pitch prop, pretty fast roll out, but it did it pretty well.

    I'm assuming that's off the transom?

    Nope, pylon, 39 gallon fuel tank up front was full. We just tried it for kicks and the pylon in that boat is heavily reinforced. That boat will never be asked to do that, but we wanted to see what it would do since our triple rig driver was in the bathroom at the time............. :mrgreen:

    Did you get any info on the grab handles yet? I need to order one soon.

    Did you use your boat last weekend?

    Haven't checked on the handles yet, but should do so soon. Are you looking for the ones with the flat base on them that are on the rear deck, or just the tube that is on the side near the passenger seat? You should be able to get the plain tube style from any marine dealer.

    For an example of the tube style click on the below link and go to page 48, top right corner.

    I'm looking for the tube style handle for the passenger. I haven't been able to find one like that. I've checked cabellas, west marine, iboats and some other places. There are quite a few handles out there but I want something streamlined like the one on your boat. I can't open the link you provided but I'll try going to the website directly. Thanks!

    If that's what you are looking for, you can't find it anywhere local, I'm sure Hannay's would ship one out to you. Any of the parts guys should be able to help. I generally deal with Joe and Jeff Hannay. Let them know I referred you.

    Mark,

    You can get the stainless handles like mine from Overton's. They have the long style like you are looking for, as well as the shorter style like I used on my rear hatch.

    Mark,

    Now that I think about it I think I gave an extra one of the handles to Bob when he bought the boat. Maybe he can sell it to you if you only need one, and are having a hard time finding a place that sells them.

    That would be great. I haven't heard from Bob much lately. I'll have to check w/ him. Thanks, Greg!
