The 165 is a looker for sure. I'm glad to hear you haven't had any major issues. I hate to say this but I'm a speed junkie. Not sure if the lake I'm on will lend myself to try her out. For the most part the wife and I will be putting around and fishing. It's pretty cold here so I will be tortured until April when things warm up. I found a dock slip too. The local marina just added more slips. The charge a lot of money for people who boat by the day and don't have a slip. They really don't want non-residents to have access. That makes for good fishing. It sounds like you have the perfect boat for your needs. Have you tried wake boarding or water skiing. My uncle said he would teach me.
Yeah. Different strokes for different folks! lol My brother in law is like you and loves speed.

I've done waterskiing and wakeboarding since I was a kid. But haven't been doing much as an adult. Our lake is small and wife isn't comfortable pulling me around. So I have to get my brother in law to do it which happens once in a while. lol I also pull my daughter and nieces on the tube too... along with my wife at times.
