Boat Info
1996 Sea Ray 215 Express Cruiser
Engines
5.7L Mercuiser
Grew up on the water going to Lake Cumberland every weekend back in the 70’s/80’s. Decided it’s time to get back on the water. My wife and I just picked up a very clean 1996 215 Express Cruiser and can’t wait to get back out there. Looking forward to learning all I can here. I think her smile says it all.

Good for you, keep her happy.
 
Ahhh great boat J! I’ve got a 225 Weekender, same as your boat, only a foot longer, love it! Congrats and welcome aboard:)
 
Was my favorite sea ray back in the day. Never had the opportunity to pick one up. Enjoy.
 
Welcome from another KY Boater!! We are RIVER RATS and love it. Right now the Ohio is as good as it gets, GREEN, clear and slow current!! Get out there - watch and respect Barge traffic and watch for dead heads!

Welcome
I grew up in Louisville and spent many weekends at Cumberland (Connely Bottom). It's an awesome place so I hope that you enjoy your new to you boat there

Thank You. We used to dock @ Lee’s Ford. Looking to go back there since we have family in Somerset. We would stop at Connelly Bottom to gas up when we would head down to Jamestown and the Dam.
 
Did our maiden voyage today!! I definitely need backing the boat down the ramp practice!! The ramp was really long because they have dropped the lake to Winter Pool already. But we had a good time and got the boat back on the trailer with no issues.

Years of making the 8 hr. trip from Orrville Oh.to Dale Hollow at Henderson Creek when the kids were younger and we had trailer boats. Now my youngest lives in Lancaster. Kentucky. You might not have the Great Lakes but the lakes you do have sure are great.
