Hey BB, you are certainly correct, I did bring home my new baby. It was a great day. Drove from DSM, IA to Lake Viking, MO to pick up my new trailer, then to Omaha, NE to get the boat from Mike, then back to DSM. All without a single issue.

Back home in the garage. Test fitting the spare and cleaning her up.

Congratulations Big! She's a beaut! And I thought the same thing B. I'm like "Jeez its setting on a single axle"! Then I read..

That Dude must really get around. :lol: He was super to work with and really made the whole deal fun. Hopefully the boat still runs great next Spring. Kinda sad to take a 3 state road trip to get a boat then just park it away for the winter. It needs a good deep clean and a few minor fixes and upgrades so that will keep me busy with it over the winter. ;)

Yea he's a great honest guy. I've known him for a good five years. I've been trying to get Bald Mike's North going up here with him. One of these days we will figure it out. He's buying a boat from my area.
We will help you spend your winter money. Can't wait.
