Well it was a long drive to Mountain Home, AR from Florida, but it was worth it. I picked up my new 08 Classic, 175 HPDI Yamaha and its ready for the trip back. Have to take my wife to Branson for the weekend, as that was part of the deal. I just have to repeat, the people here at Bass Cat are just super. Ivan made sure everything was the way it was ordered. I also got to spend a few minutes with Ron and Rick Pierce and your just know they want you to be happy with your Bass Cat! My dealer, Parkway Marine in Tallahassee, FL worked real hard to make sure I got the right boat, the way I wanted it. Fred Jones is not only a Bass Cat dealer, he is a bass fisherman and he has a great working knowlege in helping a customer pick the right options. Rachel and I took it out today on Bull Shoals Lake, Everything up here is flooded right now, and it has been raining off and on. We managed to get 10 miles on it before the rain started moving in again and we loaded the boat up and dropped it off at the factory for safe keeping while we are in Branson. I am very happy with my motor choice. Now if it lasts 17 years and still be saleable like my 91 Sabre, I will be back for another Bass Cat! I will try to post a picture when I remember how I did it the last time. Copy and paste did not work this time. If anyone can clue me, I will appreciate it. Skipjack68
