New member from Canada

Post by JohnnyB »

So it took all summer but I finally found her and picked her up about a month ago. It took me some time to post pics because I wanted to clean her up. It’s a 2006 250 with a 8.1gi Volvo duo prop. I know over the winter I’ll be buying a few things for it. It sucks having the Canadian dollar so low compared to your American 💵. I’m so in love with her😍😍😍

Thanks for the follow-up JB. Sharp looking colors and boat. You’ll love the cockpit roominess and balance of a center transom walk-thru.

Now how about an engine pic? :mrgreen:

I know, after talking to a lot of boat people and reading a lot of posts from members on this forum, I said I might as well blow my budget. Lol. I didn’t want to get a boat that might not be big enough for my family, so I went a bit bigger. 😁

Yea Colin and I talked a bunch before he got his and I got him the shipper for him. He's a great guy. And yes I know he's trading this. Sure would be nice if he would show his boat more often though I think he still has it?
