Hope you like it as much as I like mine, I just purchased a leftover 2008 Regency from Bass Pro in Las Vegas. Like the boat so far, really liked the price, noticed they had another smokin deal on a 2008. Do you live in Nevada? Photos are good if you down size them, which I did not on my first post!
Your in good company here, lots of Trackers and lots of knowledge that is shared without the bickering that is typical of most forums.

Yep Bass Pro Shop Las Vegas is where I got mine, Tracker had this model on sell and Merc threw in extra 2 year warr free [total 5 on mtr], I bought this size so it tows easy with my Nissan frontier [6cly/4.0], this one has the 21 inch tubes and 30hp max, took it twice out to lake mead and thought it might be slow but it really is not compared to other pontoons, 2 people is what the most I will have on board most the time, I suspect I was getting around 15-17 mph at WOT, 5000 rpm was all it do I am looking at a smaller pitch prop to raise rpm's a little.

Which brings me to this question, for those of you will small hp motors what is your prop pitch, dealer install 9.75dia-9.50pitch on my 30hp merc, I am looking at a 10.5dia-9.0pitch to raise rpms just a little and not to lose any speed, any thoughts..
