Looking to keep at the Westhampton bath and tennis. Waiting for surveys to be done.
Congrats. I also have a 2011 that I purchased late in 2013. This has been the longest I've ever owned a boat and I've put > 1,000 hours on her which should give you a good indication as to my satisfaction. My biggest piece of advice is to not trust anyone with your pods but Cummins. You'd probably deal with their Kearny, NJ location, and/or possibly Bristol, PA. I know Kearny techs regularly travel the full length of Long Island, not sure about Bristol. Dealing with Cummins directly is expensive but they do it right and from what I've heard over the years, many of the "pod shops" including the big one in NY that I forget the name of (starts with a W) often messes things up and has to bring Cummins in to fix their errors; something I'm sure they don't fess up to the end customer. 2nd piece of advice is to perform all scheduled maintenance on the pods. 3rd advise: talk to your Cummins technicians directly and try hard to be on the boat with them while they work. They appreciate interested owners and will give you an education you can't get from anyone else. Hopefully you have the service records from the previous owner. If you don't then make an appt. to have a tech come to your boat and go over everything with him and have him advise you on what to do first. Last tip: Check your fluid levels (3 points on each pod) before you operate the boat and then again afterward while the pre-trip levels are fresh in your mind. I once got lazy and stopped checking this frequently and then discovered a tranny fluid leak the hard way. Always better to find a leak sooner than later. Good luck with her and definitely post some photos!
Thanks so much and sent you a pm
