Picking up the new boat today finally.  I will be out at Washington all day doing laps around the lake to break her in.

Groovy baybee!  Heed Brian's advice.  We broke in the Ranger on Sammamish and Banks... it can be a real yawner after awhile. But turn on that graph and start marking.... suddenly times up!  Engine is ready to rock n roll!


As an aside, those new Evinrude's require NO break in period. They do it on a dyno back at the factory.  Since there's so many ways to break in an engine wrong, and few ways to do it right, I think this is the wave of the future (finally!).  I really believe that will cut down on the amount of blown heads and premature engine failure.  I think within a few years, all engine manufacturers will be selling their engines "pre-broke" in.

As the saying goes, "The first 10 hours you treat your engine dictates how the next 10 years it will treat you."

Thanks for bringing the boat by last night Mark. Guys this boat is sweet. You can ride the hype about them being a little heavier or whatever, but I'll tell you that this would be a dream to fish out of. Great storage and a padded front deck....padded...it is cool and probably helps on the feet and back tremendously. The room on the side of the console make it super easy to get from the front to back which is nice when fighting those big running smallies. And the boat just flat out looks sharp!

Congrats Mark

Ok its official.  This boat is HUGE.  I had know idea that this thing would be so big.  WOW.  I, Mark Maderos, aka Auburn Sports Marine Annex, actually have enough room for ALL my stuff with room to spare.  Just have to figure out the prop issue's and she will be up to full speed soon.

Mark

Cant wait to show her off for everyone down at Silver.  See ya there everyone.

Yes that boat is a beautiful rig> I stopped by Gonnasons to check her out and even being a Skeeter boy now I was envious.

Congrats Mark.
