The Nooga is a good day trip for sure....and your neighborhood....come on... paradise. I hope I didnt scare anyone jumping wakes.....or upset anyone...... Look forward to next time... Thanks for having us down....and popping for lunch.

Whats the top speed on that NB

[BarryMac]

So RO, how did the lil Mrs. like a boat without a windshield? Does she want one noe also??? :D Looks like fun... :D

[NashvilleBound]

Whats the top speed on that NB
So far with the 26 Bravo 1 its right at 80mph. I need to get the labbed 30 I have off the shelf....ditch the people that cram in everytime and loose some fuel. Really....I think I will see 85ish...maybe, but doubtful, 90. The water is so flat out here I need to get into some wind to really get this thing to float right. I CAN tell you that the river in Chattanooga runs at 6mph.... Down stream we were hitting 76, up stream right at 70.....and it was a hot 90 outside too. The air is just now getting cool enough for some nice speed runs.

WAYYYY TOO MUCH! I really cant recall what my bottom line was....I just kept writing checks..... I should probably figure it up. I insured it for $130k.....should be close. I opted for every single thing they have except the air scoop....and more....(twin full hydraulic, offshore Dana tabs...etc...) We really like it.

[Kilrtoy]

Im just curious as to the price of the Merc HP525 to the viper 625....
was a big difference

I think as an industry standard the upcharge is almost the same.

[dicudmore]

We did. Everything was cool except RO almost starting a fight with some genetically challenged fishermen....(loosely said) I am sure he'll deny it......

[RiverOtter]

So RO, how did the lil Mrs. like a boat without a windshield? Does she want one noe also??? :D Looks like fun... :D
She liked untill we hit 55 or 60. I gotta admit the wind wasn't bad untill the high numbers. After riding in NB's, shes ready to buy one :cool:
Went out in out Chappy today. I'm not sure that it ever moved. I kept pushing the throttle forward and it didn't seem to do anything :notam:

[RiverOtter]

Does he have the 550 or 625
He has one of these :D

The ride in NB's boat solved 2 problems.
1. The wife is now ok with no windshield
2. You can wakeboard behind a cat.

:idea: Hmmmmmm..... Maybe I could loby the city counsil to close that side street :D

I built a garage to house mine....actually a reinforced concrete structure rated at 150mph for wind.... but when I rented for my Ultra it was $175 month.....at SureGuard. Cheaper places but your paying for a peice of mind.
