Had a jet boat from 2017 to 2019, (24’ Vortex with twin 250). Loved it, but it was due for a supercharger rebuild, and every dealer pretty much stopped servicing them, so I traded it in for a larger boat I could take offshore. Rarely went offshore, and it barely got 1 MPG so got sick of paying for dock fuel (140 gallon tank at $5+/Gal down here) and a huge boat payment, when all we do is restaurant/bar and island hop, so just downsized to the 195s, found a decent deal on a 2021, has the tower with the cone speakers… seems well accessorized. Pick it up this week.
 
Congrats ! 🍾
