Well, just picked up this baby on Saturday. Should be a lot of fun!!! http://www.mitsustyle.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=9016&d=1249311274http://www.mitsustyle.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=9019&d=1249311299http://www.mitsustyle.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=9018&d=1249311299http://www.mitsustyle.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=9017&d=1249311274And the Maiden Voyage on Saturday afternoon. It was cold, but that wasn't about to stop us from enjoying her first trip out! http://www.mitsustyle.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=9025&d=1249311511http://www.mitsustyle.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=9026&d=1249311511http://www.mitsustyle.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=9028&d=1249311538http://www.mitsustyle.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=9027&d=1249311538http://www.mitsustyle.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=9031&d=1249311577So who was expecting it to be a Mustang, haha It's a 2006 Bayliner 195 with the 5.0 220hp Mercruiser Carburated motor. It's an 06, but it's Brand New. Never been on water, never been titled, we're the first owners. Something about some place going out of business, and this dealer buying their inventory, having to go through BS to get the paperwork right so they could sell it. Anyhow, we got it for around 10k less than they sell new, since it's already 3 years old. Hell of a deal. Has everything we wanted. Put a good 5hrs on it this past weekend. Pulled us skiing and wakeboarding just fine. Pretty pumped about it!!!! Can't wait to get up there again this weekend!! Anyhow, just figured I'd share my excitement about my new toy. Couple mods to come is we will need to get some sort of Depth Finder as it didn't come with one which was a bummer. Next will probably be to upgrade the stereo system a little bit as right now it consists of only 2 speakers. I've never dealt with Marine Audio, but will be something fun to look into and do. Last mods are to possibly add a wakeboard tower, and possibly an extension of the current swim platform, but those may not come for a couple years yet.

Boats are always a blast, nice to get such a good deal as well.

Only thing is that we want to be able to easily and quickly remove/install the tower. Having speakers/wires up there makes it a little less simple.
