    New to Me 2005 198 - 12 hours...

    Just wanted to take a moment and "join the family." I found this Champ in September. It had 12 hours on it. Still had origional registration and blue on the tires. The owner replaced batteries, emptied tank, replaced fuel lines and performed standard maintanence before I bought it. I've now put 20 hours on it and couldn't be happier with my purchase.

    Wow Really nice rig How does a 2005 boat wind up with only 12 hours on it in 5-6 years -- I've got 9.5 hours on mine and only had it on the water three times so far....

    Beautiful Boat!!!

    By the way, are you the same tejasbass (from the TFF) that won the St Jude tournament, on lewisville, year before last?

    Answered my own question. Just looked at the weigh-in from that tournament & verified that you are the one who won that tournament. If I remember correctly, your partner Jamie had never fished a tournament before! Great Day & Good Times.....

    Welcome to the ChampioN family!!

    That was a great day and a good time. You guys put on one heck of a tournament. Yeah, Jamie thought this fishing stuff was easy. Trade some golf equipment for fishing stuff, show up and win a tournament. I've since tought him it's not that easy...

    My wife had to learn the same lesson. First tournament she fishes...catches a 5lb'r...First Place & Big Bass. Fast forward to today & 100's of tournaments later...she is still trying to replicate that first win. Lol

    Enjoy that ChampioN. I just got mine just 2 month's ago. It has been the best Purchase I have made in years.
