Why not the slider?

If it is the same sliding door that was in my 38LX you do not want it. It is very hard to open and had some problems with it. It does look nice but I like the 3 piece door on my Lightning better. My children can actually open the door themselves.

I have been out 4 out of the past 5 days.

We are going out this afternoon.

The seas are only 1-2 feet today but the temps are in the high 80s already. I have only seen 89 on GPS so far but the gas tanks are still 90% full.They are finishing my lift today so I will be able to get the boat out of the water today.

Scott told me they sold about 75 % of all the 47s made for 2005. I assume it will be the same for 2006. Kind of funny that not even near the ocean and they sell the 47s like that. So far I love my 47. Saturday was cruising about 80 mph thru 3-4 footers and the wife was sleeping on the back bench. This boat is made for the rough stuff. My buddy is taking delivery of the first 48 Express cruiser in Tampa next month. I am thinking they will look good tied up together.
