That's a damn nice looking boat! She's big enough I bet she'll handle waves really nicely

thanks for the comments everyone.

im really happy with her, she does cut through the waves nicely.  its pretty much exactly what i was looking for to have fun with on lake travis.

the carpet is not snap out but i do have a large bimini to keep my feets(and everything else) comfortable  Wink

no, thank you.  i saved $24 already this year on gas at lakeway.  apparently im the first one to ask about the discount because the lady at the register had to make a phone call to verify. she had never heard of it, lol.  this card is going to pay for itself in no time. Grin

After towing for a couple years, I agree, that's the only way to go. It's really worth it.

Where did you get a slip?
