I just got done cleaning the boat today. My wife is gone for most of the day, but we should be able to get you pics by tomorrow (I suck mostly with computers and need her help on how to do pictures on the internet).

Note the price change. We really need to get rid of this boat, so I'm reducing my asking price as listed above. I should be able to e-mail you the pics tomorrow. I'll also try and post them on the site here, but that may be a problem as we've tried posting pics on this site in the past and we couldn't get it to work.

At any rate, you should have the pics tomorrow.

Pictures should now be available on the advertisement above. If you (or anyone else) has problems viewing the pictures, let me know and I'll e-mail them to you. Thought I'd try putting them in the post as to e-mailing since this would be quicker.

You bet I know him!!! I played one year of HS Baseball (I was a freshman and he was a senior) and some town ball with him and his brother Mike. One day in HS practice he and a couple other seniors came to the ballpark and ordered us freshmen to run a lap or two around the ballfield. I didn't appreciate that too much as I felt he wasn't the coach, so I said no. Coach came a couple minutes later, and I got DOUBLE the laps that the other freshmen ran! smile.gif I also remember Marc knocking a guy out cold turkey when he was pitching in a game once...hit him right in the head. Marc is one heck of a good guy. I've talked to him once or twice from my boat on the lake he lives on, Hook, by Hutch. Not sure if he still lives there, but I'm 99.99% sure he did a few years ago.

I'm not at home right now, but will be back home around noon or so and will e-mail you pics then. If you see Marc again, you can ask him if he remembers me....my name is Eric Parrott.

Just a reminder that if you're thinking you may want to buy this boat, we could set up a test drive on a lake within 1 or 2 hours of Gaylord either on a week night or weekend. The boat is completely ready for the water. I've been working weekends at the office and at home, so I could use a little break out on the water! grin.gif

If you want to bring a spouse or loved one along, feel free to do so...the more the marrier! It would be a great opportunity for you to get a feel for the boat and whether it fits your needs or not. We can take a few laps around a lake, I'll let you know about the "ins and outs" of the boat, and when we're done, you can go home and think it over. If you're interested, feel free to e-mail me at my address listed in the ad.

Anyone else interested? This is a great boat that has provided lots of entertainment for me and my family. The fuel mileage is great as you will get about 110 to 120 miles on a full tank of gas. More than enough power for waterskiing. Top speed is anywhere from about 48mph to 54mph (according to graph and boat speedometer) depending on the numbers of people in the boat and which of the two props you use. Fully loaded boat with 4 people will run around 44mph. The 150 Optimax is all computerized, so there is no choking or throttling up the idle required. The 9.9 kicker works great...I've caught one of my biggest walleyes (a 29"er) in 8' of water in about 3 foot waves while using this motor. I've caught easily over 1000 walleyes out of this boat. Plenty of legroom for full sized adults. Very stable, rides great and is easy to steer with the hydraulic steering. Lighted livewells with aerators and timing switch, accessable rod locker storage on both sides of the boat plus shelves on both sides of the boat to keep rods and other equipment readily accessible. Battery indicator gauges up front with livewell switches and tilt/trim switch up front. 5 Cabela's cupholders installed at each seat location so that everyone can have a drink without having to always hold onto your drink. Boat has always been stored inside a garage.

Shoot me an e-mail if you're interested! Your best reasonable offer will be considered!

Eric - I am going to LOTW with Max in a few weeks - I'll definately ask about you. If you need to black-mail him, you can get all kinds of info from me - it'll cost you though. Great looking boat - I bet a guy could catch a muskie in that boat - I can't quite afford it though, unless my brother gives me a loan...

Paul,

I think Max is in investments if I'm not mistaken, so if I start investing, I'll certainly come to you so that I can have some "leverage" against him. grin.gif No, J/K.

You could certainly catch a musky or just about any other type of fish out of the boat, although I don't think a big 'ol sturgeon would fit in there too well. smile.gif

If price is your concern, you could certainly e-mail me and let me know what the range of price you're looking at. I'll certainly consider it if it's relatively close to the advertised price. But, if you don't think you can swing something like that, then you'd probably be better off looking into something else. Whatever is in your best interests.

Any rate, thanks for the inquiries. Good luck up on LOTW!

Just giving notice to those interested that next weekend, August 13 & 14, will be the last weekend that test drives will be available. Wife is due with our second child on August 26 and I won't be leaving from home much after the 14th.

Thanks.

Thanks to everyone for the inquiries. Was nice to meet a few of you.

Now it's on to the next boat in spring of 2007!!! Boat shows here I come! (even though I have to wait a little better than a year!).
