It's been a while since I posted anything. We put our new 20 Sli in the water for it's maiden voyage in mid may. The Huron River Chain of lakes (SE Michigan) had record flooding this year as so many rivers have. That hampered our ability to get to the lakes until early June. Now as the waters have receded I can't believe the amount of trees, docks, and crap in the water. You would think that there was a logging operation going on! Consequently, we have one seriously dinged up prop. I just checked with my dealer and was pleased to see that the new replacement is only $123 and $79 to recondition the existing one with only a 4 day turn around. I think I'm going to buy a new spare and recondition the existing prop. I've been on this river 30 years and never hit so many obstacles. I guess I faired better than the boats who crashed their bimini's into the road bridges. It's been a challenge navigating with a new toon but it hasn't prevented us from enjoying our new Benny!
