Hey everyone, I'm Scott. I just picked up my first running, water ready boat last week! She's a 1993 Persuader 219 with a 502ci. I've known the previous owner since before he purchased it, and I know he maintained her well. I have a lot to learn but really look foreward to getting out on the lake this summer. I'll try to host some pictures later and post them up, they're all on my cell phone currently.
 
Just brought her home Friday night, and haven't gotten any whole pics. She needs a good cleaning and the sun pad redone. But that won't keep me from taking her out.

These were from last summer before they covered her up.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. GimmeFuel, I live in Washington MI. I'll be primarily using my CM on the Holloway Resivoir, Lakeville Lake, and St. Clair.

Plans for this year is just maintenance and getting a feel for what it really needs. I'll redo the sunpad and re tint the glass. Longer term I'd like some additional performance, and I plan on a paint job/interior refresh.
 
Nice boat. We camp and boat at Holloway often. It's about 20 mins from home and we already have 4 long weekends booked at Wolverine Campground on the water. Worked many years building homes in Washington twp also. Small world. See you at the lake !

Absolutely! My in laws live on the other half of the Resivoir in Columbiaviile, so we will be out there a lot hopefully! It's pretty calm on that side and I hope to get some full speed runs logged on the GPS.
 
Yes we hang out back there ,dock at Columbiaville and walk a block to get a few slices of pizza there. That back part of the lake is more calm and big enough to rip it up. Have fun !
