Thats the GPS I have. Damn if I know how most of it works but it has tons of features.

And I like my leaning post. I can sit sideways on it if I'm tired.

Nice boat..Congrats.

They make them in black & white for sure. Not sure if they have any other colors. Really convenient storage compartment for stuff that I'll use a lot of. Jig heads & what not.

Ours is on the front of the console.. I like that location better... Just can't do it on ours bc of gauges n throttle.. Our cup holders will have to keep doing the trick for the meantime

I don't have enough space on my tiny console to fit anything near that. I'm still struggling to find a spot to mount a radio that would be waterproof and I can manipulate it while I'm driving

ohh yeah,Jsmoke.
Before putting any gas in her,if the tank is empty,turn on the power to the fuel gauge and see how much fuel it takes to lift the needle from full empty.
Write that shite down somewhere in the boat.
That way you'll know exactly how much fuel you have left once the gauge shows empty.

have not put it on the water yet. I'm at work right now. I'll be home next week & will post pics & videos as soon as I get it on the water.

I have it propped with a mercury bravo I XS 26p. I'll be getting a 3 blade prop if this prop doesn't do at least 70 mph. Probably a fury.

You won't have many friends left on here. Maybe you shouldn't...

82.4 mph with a 250 Yamaha SHO

I'll be very disappointed if I'm not running mid 70's with my motor / prop.

dude,please at least wear a good inflatable life est in a rig that goes that fast,and make sure to attach the lanyard from the kill switch at all times.
I know many people in CC's don't do it but you will be really flying in that thing.
