picked up our 180 shabah last sat morning. filled up the tank 2 times. ran it all day sat,sun,mon,tue,wed,thurs, and fri. we love it.

boat handles really good. nice crisp sharp turn. excellent power. pulls strong. comes on plain really quick, trim it up just tad and top speed is rite there.

we had four people on board and four teens on three tubes with about fifteen gallons of gas. no problem.

cuts through waves for a nice smooth ride. other bow riders I've been on all have that jarring thud as you cut across a wake. not our mariah.

did I mention it look great too. our friends boy and I were swimming and looking at the boat. I said I really like the way it looks. He said ya it looks like a racing boat. you know a fast one.

could it get better? yes,. we bought it $3000 less than blue book and three years newer than most boats in that price range. nor did they come with half the features.

Congrats Lawmanbsi! Glad you love your Mariah! You'll find that the rest of us had the same feelings as you when we all first got our Mariahs. Total excitement! I still just stand there and stare at our 252 Shabah even though we've had it for over 3 years.

Now upload some pictures to the gallery for us all to drool over!
