Well she performed flawless, we had her in the Del river for the first hour of break-in then we took a run down the C&D to the susky flats the off to the Bohemian River to take a few hours to sit and let Lil Goddess get out and swim for few. Ran back down the C&D and down to Ship John Lighthouse we go. She sipps gas and runs smooth as silk . 6+ hours later on the meter and 100 plus miles and we not even burnt a 1/4 a tank which is 137 galons. Goddess even got behind the wheel for a hour once we got back in the river and ran south. She handle the wakes of bigger boats like a charm and even the sloppy conditions that greated us at SJLH. She cruised at 37 mph at 4000 rpms and got 2.8 to 3.4 mpg . I think she averaged with the slow speed break in at 11 galons per hour burn , so I'm very pleased with her.
TOP speed was 43 mph with full tank of fuel.
NOW TIME TO SEE the BLUE or atleast GREEN next weekend .

We placed our order on the 16 of July and got it tonight , other than that we had no other dealings with them. It only took about a half hour to do and worked out great.
Easy enough a caveman can do !!! LOL
