Welcome @bigbyrd and congrats on the new boat. Make sure to post pics when you pick it up. As far as mods, I'd say some kind of cleanout plug blowout prevention (Ez-lock or Tru-lock) and possibly a fin kit to help with maneuvering. But you might want to wait until you see how it feels on Wednesday.

Timmy! Timmy! Timmy! (Sorry - it's a South Park thing).

You had me at mods! Boy we can't wait to spend your money :-D

I do highly suggest some guide rails on your trailer. They greatly assist when trying to load the boat on the ramp. Other than that, take her out a few times and get a good feel for her and what mods will be most important to you and your personal application.
