Post by: SeaRun1 on January 11, 2019, 10:26:01 PM: I’m going. Haven’t been to it in years. I bought a 19’ Arima this year so looking at mods and accessories for the boat.

Specifically looking for a fuel flow device and good fishing additions.

Post by: Blacklab on January 13, 2019, 04:39:53 PM: Well I canceled my boat order. Decided to go back to my original plan. Same boat model just different motor. The dealership does’nt open till tuesday. Numbers are better from what I can tell also.

Post by: Blacklab on January 13, 2019, 05:58:59 PM: Max hp is 135 for 20'. So a 115 will definitely work. I'm looking at the Yamaha SHO 90 or 115. Their kind of ugly but the performance is promising. Should have everything worked out sometime next week :drool:

Hey h20 did ya pull the trigger on anything. Do tell ;)
