Finally got home with my new boat! 33ol!!
Well, I got back this morning from Va.
It was 2080 miles round trip from la to va and back! Long trip and towed with 13' f150 5.0 fx4 that my dad had just bought! Truck towed it great and the trailer breaks really pulled on the truck and trans temp on got about 5 degrees higher than normal driving. Will end up buying tow vehicle later so I don't kill wife's expedition though its rated at a healthy 9200.
Boat has 12 hrs on new 454 mag mpis!! Ran 67.6 on flat water first time out during sea trial. Got up great with 25p m+. Boat likes lots of trim.. Max was phone app and was slow to update also. Need more seat time a d play with 2x's drives at dock too.
Have a lot cleaning and wet sanding to do. Wasn't color scheme i wanted but couldn't pass up the deal. Put all new bearings and tires for ride home!!
Now I just have to run return lines to tank and fix stereo. Also dealer couldn't find draw on battery coming from dash lights??
Having issues downloading pics from phone. Too big.. Hmm let me figure out how I can do this on phone or tablet and post... Flying to ATL in am so I can't use PC in ofc.
