Congrats on your purchase Lil T. Some great advice here from the guys. One of the biggest things I think should be considered is your experience and how comfortable you are going out on the water. Just because your boat may be equipped for it, or the dealer says it can is certainly no reason to do so. Being comfortable navigating and knowing your limits is the most important thing you can learn while operating your own vessel. Good luck and have fun.
