Manomet,

Yes I picked up from Atlantic boat. I looked for used ones for the last 6 months and finally went with new, left over 2007.

After minor electrical repair, blown fuse, gave it the maiden voyage yesterday. Although the weather was less than perfect (rainy, cloudy, minor fog, cold 38d, etc) the ride was great. Most of the time the water was like glass so not much a challenge. Good test for a first ride to break in everything including the Captain's skills. Ran the length of Buzzards Bay from the Wareham River, across to Wood Hole and down almost to Cuttyhunk.

Cruising 4000RPM, 35MPH, about 7 GPH (Suzuki 150HP). Luckily the engine was in the 3rd hour of breakin so I didn't have to worry about keeping under 3000RPM.

Alway in need of fishing buddies, send me you contact info.
