My New Boat!!!

Well, I figured that I wasn't going to have the pleasure of making one of these threads until next summer or the summer after, but as fate would have it I managed to not only get a boat this year, but I've already been out on it twice!
It's a 1993 Checkmate Convincor 251
-502ci
1. Mostly stock except an Edelbrock high rise intake, Edelbrock Carb, and MSD ignition
-Bravo 1 drive/24p prop
Boat has 110 hrs since the motor was rebuilt, and most everything else is in great shape. There are a couple things that I would like to take care of this winter, but overall I think it will be a great boat for me to learn my way around on!!

Managed to get a short video of it on the muffs, sorry the sound quality isn't better.

Thanks guys, and thanks likewise for the advice, I am a new boat owner, and this is my first boat. Any advice or tips you guys have are more than welcome!!!

I. would also recommend putting the drive down when storing it. Leaving it up puts unnecessary stress on the bellows and shift cable boot causing them to possibly crack and leak.
