I had a Raytheon depth finder which told me I could get up to 31mph which seems to be plenty. I don’t tournament fish, so I can live with that.

I'm sure I'm breaking the rule by more than a couple of points. But self preservation helps out.

And I'm still happy for you.

GaryH: Here is my theory on the use of a boat. Use the hell out of it, and take good regular maintenance. Because whether you do or don't it will deteriorate at the same pace, regardless! You are not going to have any fun with it setting in the garage! The fish you catch are directly proportional to the time you spend on the water with your line in the water!

Great looking rig. I question that you have a 250 HP engine. But maybe. Post more pictures when you've caught some fish. Just sayin...RJS

I will show some restraint because of your age and wisdom for basically calling me a liar. You can answer your own question of whether it's a 250 HP engine on the boat by going to the Skeeter website and type in ZX250.
Just saying.
Unbelievable

Gary,RJS May have missed the first pics which clearly showed the Yamaha 250 motor on the transom.

Gary, I don’t give a crap what anyone says about buying, owning, or using a boat. But, your boat isn’t just a boat. It’s a fishing boat I’ve always dreamed of owning, but never will. Every time I look at those Skeeters on the web I start dreaming again. It’s the perfect rig. It has everything needed to fish or just boat ride, and enjoy. So, blow all the negative crap out and have fun in your new boat.

Hack, if all goes good I'll be headed to Texas next year to fish in the Skeeter tournament. I will definitely get a hold of you and it would be my honor to have you spend a day fishing with us. Heck you can drive the boat.

I hope you get to go. With a whole bunch of healing all around, you could get to be there and do what you love.
