What level of rough water can a 185/195 sport handle? I live in York pa and am looking to make sure I get an appropriate vessel. Thinking the roughest I would explore would be lake Erie or parts of the chesepeake
I bought a truck this year with the intent on getting watercraft of some sort. I have been researching what I want off and on for some time now and this forum has been helpful so far. My decision now seems to be between a jet boat and a sea ray. I really like the name and design of the sea ray...
Still looking daily. Trying to find opportunities to test my options. Might wait until next spring. Hate to buy at prime time, but if I buy used I think I'd be uncomfortable not seeing the boat in action first. Pretty much set on a sea ray though, mfg owes u guys for that one. I have narrowed it...
I did see a select at the dealership, didn't pay too much attention to it due to the substantial price difference. (The only models they had were new for anything I was interested in.) It did look more luxurious for sure. So the select would be a better way to go if planning to use it frequently...
So how much does one notice ~1 ft difference? I was looking through my 2009 book from the Sea Ray dealership.. are there any major reasons I should spring for a select or sundeck instead of a sport? I would probably end up spending more and getting an older model to upgrade to the select or...
Harrisburg pennsylvania. Are these similar to the shop manuals you get for cars? (Not the ones sold at auto zone, the real ones used by the dealerships)
Is this something that can be installed on say a 185 sport or is it just something that comes from factory on certain models? If it is an option, any approx cost? And to what degree of salt water use would it be worth while to obtain?
Thank you. The removal and reinstalling of the outdrives.. is that something that occurs with all boats or just larger ones? Something that must be done? If not, what is the benefit? Approx how many hours do you put on your boat each season? Thanks
THANK YOU. that's some info I wanted. He did seem to state that the 240$ did include an oil change. So $1000 plus fuel plus storage as a fair estimate? Basically the way I want to handle this is I want to set aside an amount that I take out of each pay check all year long and form my "Boat fund"...
The one dealer I spoke to today does not do test rides on the water. I plan to keep searching for one that may though. Can you go into the service statement a bit more? Everyone seems to have skipped over this and every dealer I talk to says "oh all you have is winterization" which I know is not...
