SeaThruLens Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Finally taking a few moments to share some pics of our first 3 weeks. We are loving the new boat! Wife and Kids are happy and I am beyond excited. Cracked a cold beer, seen some amazing sunsets, and caught a few dolphin to get it a little dirty. Thanks again to George at Lindsay and the entire team at MBC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northernsnooker Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 How do you like the F150 on that boat? Fort Myers Marine has a 2200TRS with a F200 that is tempting me. My concern is the lack of power with a T-top, 3 batteries, 2 adults and 2-4 kids. I'm used to my 22TE with a 200 VMax HPDI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeaThruLens Posted June 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 I am more than happy with the f150. It is currently in for its 20hr service but the first 23hrs have been great. May look into a 4 blade prop as it has lost bite on some sharper turns with a full load coming into a tight cut. I have seen 43mph running the Reliance 19 pitch on the gps with a family of 4, 2 full coolers and everything that comes with a wife and 2 boys and t-top. I do not have the jackplate. If you like to go fast, step up to the 250 SHO. If low 40s and a quick jump on plane is all you need, I highly recommended the 150 and leaves you a few extra dollars for everything else.

SeaThruLens Posted June 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Don, You are correct. I thought a 94 quart mini coffin would be enough. Time to step it up. Thanks again for you help on the prop lock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check with Funky Monkey...I ran an 4B OFX 18 1/4" ported prop on my ol 22PF with F150...had a JP, but, hole shot was great and WOT was low 40's... dc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
