A few night pics of the Manitou Legacy

#1 Post by Bryden24shp » Fri Sep 02, 2016 8:04 am

Just thought I would share a few pictures with you of the boat while in a cove at Lake of the Ozarks. She lights up good!

I guess it's a better than average looking ride.

How do you like the conventional engine after you had a supercharged Verado that had been
tuned?

I miss that supercharger whine, that's really about all I notice. This is 300 HP and and Verado was 318, on the dyno. This has a lot more low end torque, but the power band fades away faster than the Verado did. When punching it at about 4500 rpms, the kick in the ass that I had in the Verado is gone in the Yamaha. Its just a smooth gain. I like the Yamaha better for fuel economy, though. Its not as thirsty as the Verado was.

They were factory installed. I'm really not sure of the brand. All of the interior lights up, too. All speakers, cup holders and the bow seats and stern pedestals. I'll post a pic of the interior, too. Before I'm done with it.

Striking night profile. That's one good looking boat.

Nice! That looks awesome.

That's quite a ride, and I've yet to see any toon lighted up at night on the Tennessee River.

Our lake has 100's and 100's of small toon, low hp 1980's pontoons. Kept in boathouses out of the weather, toons will last 30 or more years, and few have traded up to tri toons.

Hope you really enjoy your new Manitou. It seems like a dream ride.

Very nice! One question: Do you notice more flies//mosquitoes with the boat lit up when you are out on the water? Thanks.

We have white LED lights under rails of our boat and underwater. The evenings we have had them on don't seem to impact the bugs but do seem to make the Asian carp more active. Sometimes have them on when putting around coves near our place after dark. Don't know if it is just coincidence but the carp seem much more active. One jumped into side of boat a couple weeks ago and had one land on rear deck Saturday evening. Won't be having them on when moving anymore.
