BCD, when it warms up a touch, you gonna take me on the river show me the ropes in the classic? Thanks all for the responses. I am really excited. What kind of gas do I need to put in the boat. Also, if i am looking for a cover, nothing fancy, just something to cover it when it is not being towed, what is a good reasonable priced cover? Never owned anything this big or nice, so any input you can give me will be appreciated. Thanks. -Lee
