First, congrats on your new boat. You'll love the 170CC...I have a '03 model and wouldn't trade it for anything (except maybe a 190 or 210 but then it wouldn't fit in my garage, but that's another subject

). It sounds like you've got the boat ready to go with all of the necessary accessories. You may want to consider adding a swim platform as Fridaysoff suggested just for the peace of mind. In my experience with my boat, it is very difficult to get in the boat from the water without the platform. Even with a portable ladder and someone on board, it is a real chore. I wouldn't want to bet my life on getting back in on a cold day after an unexpected dunk. Just my opinion, of course.
If you ever decide to try out the D.C. area of the Potomac River, give me a yell. I'm always up to showing someone around. Again, congrats on your new boat.
