Friday is the day, 3pm sea trial then delivery immediately after! Bennington gave me a great fathers day present!z We took one final cocktail cruise in our 16 foot Starcraft tonight. I will miss the smell of the 2stroke but my wife won't. Having a radio and working gas gauge will just be a bonus. 10 days ago I was looking for a used boat since there was no estimate on when I would get the boat I ordered or if I would get it at all this year. Things moved quickly from there.

We got our new boat! It went very smooth. Did a sea trial at the marina, then they delivered it to the lake. Trouble docking in the wind, but no damage so I'll call it a cheap learning experience.

The cheese spread was the icing on the cake.

Now the details:
20LSRC
115hp Yamaha
SPS
Extended Aft Deck
Bennington Stainless Cleats
RGB Toe Kick
RGB Underwater
RGB Cupholders
Striker 4
Woodgrain table
Second table mount so I can put it bow or aft(they haven't done it yet but I'll keep on them)
Single Battery Switch
Ski Tow Bar
Curved Bimini Top

Well 3 weeks in and we still love it. In fact even though we have had a stretch of bad weather we have racked up the hours. We hit 20 hours at the 2 week mark. Today it went in for the 20 hour service(closer to 30 hours now) sad to see it go, but they promised me it would be back tomorrow in time for the weekend. They grow up so fast

Jealous. I have had my boat since April and have 12 hours on it. We have a toddler so hours on the lake aren't happening just yet. Love the fact you can rack those hours up enjoying it! Nice work
