My wife talked me into getting a pontoon boat, I dont think she felt safe on the ski fish combo. I had no idea how nice they were making these boats, I drove to every marina in AL, to find the right boat with the right HP, Im picking mine up Sat. I guess you can now call me a tooner..

Well you're probably going to regret that you didn't get something alittle bit bigger and with some real horsepower.. :lol: Just messin with you my friend... that's a heck of a boat, lots of room and plenty of ponys on the back end... congrats on the new boat... I'm jealous! :bowdown

Thanks for the positive comments.. Now I really cant wait unitl Saturday. I was going to get a bennington (nice boat) with a 150, even put money down on it but stressed out all the following weekend about not having enough power and then called monday and cancled my order, I just didnt want to make this kind of investment and then wished I went bigger everytime I turn the key..

Great decision, you NEVER hear anyone saying "man, I wish I had a smaller motor" but you always hear comments about wanting more speed! :nana
