    That harbor would be ideal for me. Only about a mile east of my house.

    That might be new. I dont think there was ever a launch there. I used to use the launch at burnham all the time when I had my Excalibur Hawk, which was right down the road.

    I was at the boat show last week and got a couple coupons. Stay one night get the next night free. I think the girl who worked at Marina shores was working the booth at the show.

    There was a pontoon that caught my eye there!! it had a really cool little bar setup with stools, led lights, very classy.

    Ryan and I were really diggin the Formula 40PC cruiser. It had a cool VIP lounge in the cabin. I have a feeling it won't be long I'll be lookin to give up the noisy blower motors and get into something comfortable like that!

    I'm with you buddy, the 40 SS was sweet as hell! The only part that I dont think I can break down and pay for is the Axius/Zeus system for docking. What is this world coming to when a monkey could dock the boat, LOL!!!! Actually would be pretty nice on windy days but still makes captain feel a little inadequate!!! PC was nice too but still like the 55 knot WOT that the SS has.
    The tri-toon I was talking about had a huge Suzuki V-6 250 hp motor on the back that was painted to match the TAOD paint as well. Very cool!!!!!

    Sorry I didn't grab any, how about you Spag Joe, did you get any? The SS had the solid blue hull sides with the fiberglass hardtop. They have really done the dash and gauges well these days and the cabin is ingenious with the V-berth convertible to a bed or full V-dinette and huge aft cabin with flat screen TV. Amazing for a boat that will run around 60 mph and handles waves well. I drove my buddies in the Ozarks with 16 on board loaded with fuel and refreshments at 50+ mph. Amazing too is the fact that it will get over 1.5 mpg at cruise which is triple that of a comparable cruiser with the same amenities. It is a great compromise for those wanting to cover some miles in a day, have a boat that can run with the pack, and great over-nighter. Just my .02
