Thanks! Which ramp do you usually use? We are at the Cubesmart near Lake Park. We are heading to Ray Roberts tomorrow to do some fishing and cruising. Can’t wait!
Sorry just saw this. We launch at Lake Park, hard to beat the annual deal for $50. I've been to Ray Roberts, but it's pretty far from me, when I can be on Lewisville in under 20 minutes. Y'all have fun.

I have been reading every page on this forum for the past couple of weeks and it helped me in making me initial purchase decisions.

I picked up a 2019 AR240 from Phil Dill Boats out of Lewisville, Tx. It was actually really bad weather this past Saturday. I am very impressed that I was able to get up to 43 MPH with 3 adults in 3-5 ft waves.

Anyway some of the things I found during my inspection.

1. Anchor locker drain needed sealed.
2. Scuff on bow where our guy missed the trailer during the test drive.

Things that I wish I would have found.

1. Trailer brake rotors are grooved on the outside of both sides, but pads have plenty of meat left?
2. Table bracket installed upside down.
3. Loose hardware in engine compartment.
Welcome Just Phishing. Let me know if you every want to join us. We typically hit Lake Lewisville most weekends from now till September and congrats on the new boat. We bought ours brand new from Phil Deal this time last year. Love that new boat feeling

Will do, we are trying to hit all of the lakes within a couple of hours this summer.
