Default Well I bought the Purple Shabah

Picked it up today and went all afternoon in the local lakes, Madison Wis. Got a bit cool out but way fun never the less The Boat ran GREAT and was a very smooth ride...It went 55mph on a smooth lake with 1/2 a tank of gas and three people, that's fast enough for me

Couldn't be happier with it, my wife said it was like sitting in our living room with the great seats and sound system.

Hopefully I'll be able to post some pix of it. Of course it IS purple

    Ha ha, ya that's true but we do hang in there pretty well, we've boated with coats on

    I'll have to do a little research on winterizing it tho, I've had an outboard up until now.

    Congrats. I've always said, "Real boaters wear coats." We actually slept on ours this weekend... bit chilly... but we had fun as always.

    I think you can only attach 3 per post, that might have been the issue. That interior looks great. Congrats again.
