I didn't notice much difference in the ride, but the hole shot did improve in my opinion. I basically shaved off about 160#s - is that enough weight to make a difference?

Hard to tell, but I doubt top-end is any better. The wind was at 10-20MPH and I never truly went WOT. Hole-shot did seem to improve, even my fishing partner commented. And i had about 40 gallons...
Gave them a work out Saturday and Sunday. Pretty impressed so far. Honestly, I think the clarity on my livescope improved too. Lot's of power on the troller too.
Made the upgrade to Lithium batteries. Luckily, my NOCO charger was already rated for them! Went with the Amazon brand thanks to Touch of Class's recommendation. If something goes wrong, I'm...
The bottom of the splashwell is bowing up? If you don't have any cracks in the splashwell and transom top and it sounds solid when you hit it with a ballpein hammer, I would say it is still good.
Has anyone use Deckmate Pontoon Seats or can you recommend a decent replacement company? The Deckmate are supposed to be in stock, free shipping, fairly reasonable and have a 6 year warranty. I...
Do you have cracks in the splash well and on top of the transom?
I like the idea of a white metal roof as it will really help with the lighting. Tongue and groove pine is nice and fairly reasonable. I have also been looking at some rough-cut oak slabs from...
I would think they could incorporate the 210 console into the 797 as they are both module? Some say that the 210/198 console needs an update too, but I like mine.
What is 2 weeks in dog years?:laugh:
Just saw that Anglers Port in Warsaw, MO has a black and orange Charger 198 for sale for less than $50k. Seems pretty reasonable in today's market!
great video Jerry
Nailed it!
Buddy of mine just put his boat in consignment at Dupo Marine. 2007 475 fish-n-ski with a 2014 225 ProXS (less than 100 hours) and a newer Ultrex trolling motor. Livescope too I believe?

Thanks for all of the advice guys and I should have stated that it is a tri-toon. It is rated to 250HP
With all of the people trading in their Optimax's for the new 4 strokes, there have been some pretty good deals on 200, 225 and 250HP optimax's. I am looking to repower my pontoon that currently has...
It's nuts! Could you imagine putting the first gouge in a $100k boat!
I know a guy that this exact same thing happened to, but it actually penetrated him and went all the way up to his chest barely missing his heart. they pulled out the handle at the hospital and...
You got one on order yet David?
Guess the Nitro would be #24, right below my Charger 210? Honestly, out of the few remaining bassboat manufacturers out there, they are all pretty decent in my opinion.
Ballistic doesn't have piles of tires laying around. They build 3 or 4 boats a year!
I had an 8" on mine. It was the manual type, but still the easy adjustability in nice to have.
Here is a picture of the auto bilge pump location.

Same here. 95% of the time that I go to BassPro I walk out empty handed. The new owners of Bullseye are very nice and have expanded their hours during the summertime which is nice for anyone that...
11 months ago, we had 2 employees/friends die from a fentanyl OD. We worked together for 25 years! I had no clue this was going on! Twin brothers and they died at the exact same time. That...
