Always wanted a Mariah, now I have one.

The title says it all. I saw the original Mariah's back in the 90's and I didn't know much about boats then except they were EXPENSIVE but it was obvious to me after looking at all the boats out there that they were beautiful boats with great lines and nice features. I mean a SS cup holder is an 18' bowrider back then stood out. Well, I don't have one of the "old" Mariah's but I do have a 2011 R19 that is new to me that I'm very happy with (I took it out and found out that the hole shot with a tube on the back was crap with a 14.25x21 prop on the back with a 4.3L TKS) I have a new 4 blade 4.0x19 on the way and we'll see how that does.

First off welcome aboard! Secondly, yes that 4 blade 19" prop should improve your hole shot considerably. Keep the 21" prop for general cruising and as a spare though.
