Trailer is a Phoenix Trailer...they just started building them with the extra length....can actually step from there up to the swim deck pretty easy! Love that feature!

Beautiful boat and trailer. Welcome to the forum! There is snow here today so I feel your pain at the end of the boating season.

Went out and got her today from storage and brought her home to do some software updates and get my Christmas presents on her...apologize for the storage dirt ahead of time...but here are a few more pics. I got the license plate frame for Christmas from my love...also the stainless cobalt plaque and another frame but haven’t figured out how to do an install on that yet. Also got the Diablo drain plug light installed...I had it prewired with Deutch connectors...took less than 5 minutes to install once I found the underwater light connector on the boat harness.

Looks nice. So no snow in the mountains? What's up with that?

There’s snow BBP but not nearly enough...we are deep into drought conditions statewide in Colorado...we need a bunch and our best wet snow months of February to April are coming but we shall see....

So Elkhunter, it's now late April. Did you get the snowpack you need? Will be there enough water to fully use your new machine? And did you ever find 'proper' storage? BTW, fabulous color scheme! I love the yellow stripe on the reverse sheer.

Snowpack is pathetic....we are 70% now of average. Main launch ramp looks like this.....we do have another ramp that is still useable but word at Lake Powell is that IF we don't get July monsoons and some moisture and the current outflow to Lake Mead stays current....all marinas on Lake Powell will be unusable by the end of October.

I do have other lakes that we can enjoy closer to home so we will get some water time in regardless. As far as storage....covered but open sides is where I am still at. Have an inside option coming soon and will probably do that to get all sun off of her.

Beautiful boat! I see you got the super cool swim platform, very nice. My older boat trailer has a similar rear step, maybe not quite as far back...right now I'm trying to figure out how to put a set of guides on. Enjoy!

Great looking boat there! Congrats on your new R3 and hopefully warmer weather is right around the corner so you can really get to enjoying her. That yellow accent color is really quite nice! Love the overall look including trailer!
