Hi all,
I am searching for a 1st or 2nd generation 263. And, I would love to know that I like the ride before actually putting a deposit down on one. Does anyone have a 262/263 within a couple of hours from Boston? Willing to take a complete stranger aboardt? Happy to buy the wine, vittles or dog treats to support my begging
Thank you,
Techie (aka Jen)

You're always welcome to test drive my 2nd generation series 263 on Lake Erie Tx2. The 22 degree deep vee deadrise hull coupled with an inset transom make it's three second time to plane; greater than 60mph top speed; and sports car like handling/mercedes ride one of the best hulls to ever come out of the Cobalt factory. Both the 262 and 263 are sexy water sport machines.
Come on up!

Thanks...but don't you all sit have icecaps on the frozen tundra? When do you plan on splashing?
My mom is about 3 hours from Erie in OH, but I've made that drive SO many times I shudder doing it again (I used to take the thruway home from BOS to my Mom's house).
I have to make a decision whether or not to keep my slip (I have a deposit down) by May 1, so timing is becoming a factor.

Oh you guys missed the spammer post that brought this thread back to life. I flagged it this mooring.
