IMG_1272.JPG I have several favorites, but this one is probably on the top of the list. I think this was my second time taking the boat out after getting it.

Edit:just realized this photo is my profile pic:-)

@Noko. Got to give props to Stewart at river city boats. He had his go pro selfie stick behind our boat!
 
@FloJet Nope...ballast only! Check out my signature line below for specifics.
 
I'm guessing you have a wedge installed to get such great wake?
She does not. :cool:
Some of us here question if water actually still flows down -- up there in The Northwest. :)

Just for the record--yes, I too am in the south and am sitting here in shorts. Can even go outside in said shorts.

But recent foot surgery means I cannot get the foot wet, making the boat a bad idea.

So, I could go out, but I can't go out. Aaarrrrghhh!

Edited to add: I think it is the northerner's revenge.
 
Psshhh you still have one leg. I think you got this @tdonoughue
 
Good point. And stitches out today. So if I can get the weather to hold for another day or two, I am home free. Or I go flamingo style.

Either way: I ain't shoveling.
 
You have heard about those love/hate relationships? That's how I am going to feel about this thread Neil @OperationROL ! Because while I love the boats and especially mine, I hate the idea, that just reminiscing over it has me thinking boats again! Especially after I am only 1/4 of the way through a new and more expensive than expected RV barn! Here are some of my favorite pics from the last trip with the 240...
