Twin 4.3 EFI w/Alpha I Drives
On Thursday, we launch our new to us 280 DA. Since it is important to have a good plan, here's ours. Thursday: figure out how to start the boat and those twin engine battery switch positions, launch boat. Friday: practice marina maneuvers like docking, turning, and stopping before a lot of weekend witnesses show up. Saturday: apologize to marina neighbors, complete insurance forms, talk with witnesses. Sunday: Take the boat for a long ride.

We're ready for this.
 
Sounds like you've got a good plan. Thursday should be easy, Friday will be a bit stressful (but fun once you get the hang of it), Saturday should be easy since you put in all the work on Friday there will be minimal 'splainin' to do, and Sunday will be all worth it!

Good luck and have fun.
