I know I’ve been on the forum for quite a bit, but today I can finally say that I am officially a jet boater!
This is our first jet boat and I am so excited to put her into the lake for her maiden voyage! We do not have a name for her yet but are exploring what we feel is right for her.
Thank you for feeding my addiction for the last 6 months and for years to come!

For those who are interested in the quality of the boat… I've got some news… It is near perfect.
It has not gone through dealer prep yet but the fit and finish of the boat is very well done. (From what we can tell so far).
Anchor locker drain doesnt look too bad. Still doesn't extend into the locker fully.
Where the engine latch is located the hatch is not notched out.
It is a very nice boat.
If you have any questions about specific areas on the boat I will be able to answer them later in Jan.
Again Thank You All So Much!

Congratulations! I've got the same boat on order. When did you place your order?
We put a deposit down March 14 21 and Aug 17 21 is when the order went in. We actually didn't get our boat from the dealer we put a deposit down with. We found this boat accident. Two people passed on it and we some how scooped it up!

That looks like Lodder's Marina? That is where I bought mine. Just curious where you are going to be doing most of your boating?

I ordered mine in late August as well. Glad to see they are getting the larger D models out.

Most likely Alum Creek!
