    Its been a bit quiet around here so I figured I would start a thread. Havent got my boat home yet, but its definately been on my mind. Im pretty sure I have decided on having my gauges redone at livorsi. Black background with blue rims and white bezels I think. Just got word my new trailer will be done next week and put under her, cant wait to see it. Im looking for some ideas on something to put across my windscreen, it is kind of plain looking. I want to do something that fits the boat but is original. Maybe a modified version of the old logo strung out, or just Saber, or just leave it. Any ideas? Also think I will paint the flip ups black to match the screen.

    Boat coming home to Bay City when the weather improves. I dont remember what is on WW i will check it out. Trailer being built by Manning, my old trailer is for sale, if anyone is looking. Still looking for someone to do some minor gelcoat repair if you guys know someone good over on that side, be nice to get it done before I bring her home.

    Did you go steel or aluminum? You should be real happy w/ the Manning trailer, he has built quite a few for 28 Sabers so it should fit like a glove.

    Hi BG, I went with steel, it was a tough call but should be fine as long as I stay here in freshwater country. I have spent too much time trying to keep my aluminum stuff shiny at work, dont want to do it on a toy.

    Home waters here at Saginaw Bay, and plan on traveling quite a bit. Torch, Higgins, Traverse City, Burt/Mullet are some of my favorites. May go to a few poker runs this year. Probably try to get down to Port Huron for Boat Night too. All depends on time and money.

    Torch is the best. i had a house on the lake and thats the one big reason i want a 28ft boat. like the perfect size. I have fam on metro beach bay. bet i could get you a spot to dock if your in the area.

    I would like to get down there for one of the poker runs or raft offs on St. Clair, if I do I will let you know. Im not sure when the dates are for the local stuff down there, I will do some checking.

    I am thinking about getting a Saber logo cut for my truck, probably use the old style one in my avatar but I do like the new one too, choices choices.

    was almost 60 here yesterday so I was thinking about it, until I saw the weather for next week. Im thinking right around the first of April probably. They are putting her on the new trailer today, I should call and get a picture. I found a guy down there to look at the gel work, so if he is fair it may stay there an extra week. My goal is to have everything done and ready to go mid May. Let me know when you go get yours maybe I will be down there too, I would love to see your boat.
