He's giving me crap because my boat only runs 54MPH. Nice ride. Congrats! You got one heck of a deal.

Thanks we are excited. Boat needs a tiny bit of work but its mostly small stuff. Trailer brakes need some adjustment, It needs a spare tire and carrier. Trailer needs a winch strap. Right now its at the dealer because it appears to be running on the lean side for some reason and the outdrive has a little play right to left. Other than that its super clean. Not a tear in a seat or anything. I'm going to get all the little stuff done, put a nice stereo in it and call it done. Anyone know somebody in Phoenix that can build a Bimini for me? Thats the only other thing it needs.
This is not my first boat but it is my first Sunsation. Any thoughts, tips or ideas are appreaciated.

Biggest thing is with the 04 and older hulls (don't know on the newer hulls) is it doesn't need a lot of positive trim for top speed. If you over trim it it'll get a loose feeling to it and you'll scrub speed. The 288 feels light and right at WOT at just over 1/4 positive trim.
