Congrats TR on both the sale and your replacement.
I noticed that your prop is barely out of the water on the lift. I don’t know if it’s aired up fully and if the boat is full of fuel, but I had to add risers to mine to raise it. The prop would get marine growth during the off season. I am of course OCD.

Re: Soliciting opinions on boat
So does anyone know what those vent looking things are in the R series boats right under the windshields? What are they venting?
In the pic look over the dash.

Re: Soliciting opinions on boat
I’ll have to check for sure, but I think they vent the large storage area under the right seat, and the head.

Re: Soliciting opinions on boat
I'll NEVER buy a salt water boat. Or even a brackish water boat. My last boat was from brackish water and I got BURNED!

Re: Soliciting opinions on boat
I'm not sure what the story is, but there are literally hundreds of thousands of small boats enjoying the coastal waterways every day. A little salt with proper maintenance and consistent washing doesnt hurt a thing, especially when its closed cooling. If its an old boat with a lot of salt hours, then obviously its buyer beware.
