Another New Guy

Hi all,
Been lurking for a while. Bought my first boat about a month ago. Picked up a 2006 Starcraft 200 Classic with a 60hp Mercury Bigfoot. This is Starcraft's entry level boat I guess since it is a very basic pontoon, doesn't even have gauges or cleats for tying off. The previous owner added a fish/depth finder and a stereo, but that's it as far as options. It has a few cosmetic imperfections but overall it is VERY clean with low hours (118). She runs perfect, although seems VERY SLOW. I keep it in the water at our place in Ocean City, MD. I have some modifications in mind, like adding fishing chairs and a front table with umbrella. If you guys have any ideas on that let me know. Anyway, here is a crappy cell phone pic. I'll have better pics in the near future.

You really have to know the waters around that bay. Other then that, no major drama. This is my first boat of any kind, so I have a lot to learn.
