During a sabbatical I took from the forum this winter I purchased another boat.  I had promised to post a picture, but, due to the snow and ice, and the fact that my boat is stored outside 21 miles from my home, I had been unable to do so.  Yesterday, I was making preparations for spring and I finally took that picture.  The boat is a 2000 Stratos 295 Pro Elite with a 200 HP Ficht.  (For you engine afficionados, recall work has been done on the fuel injector retainers.)  The boat runs like a champ.  When I took her out for a test she hit 68 mph at 5800 rpm and I could have trimmed her up a little higher.

Catt, I know you were looking at boats too.  Are you still shopping or have you settled on one that you are going to purchase?

Congrats. It looks really nice.
