thanks, been reading the boards for a year or so, just never posted. lots of great info on here. seen people do things for other people on here and everyone seems to really have a good bond. when i had my old boat, i kind of felt like i had nothing to really add, so i just kinda read what everyone had to say. learned alot, look forward to learning more. got an empty seat for anyone in the area, or visiting. would love to find someone close willing to go out one evening on the ohio river and show me the proper way to operate this boat.
