New Boat (new to us)

2004 Maxum 2000SR3....5.0 220hp motor.... pretty cool stuff!

we've pulled 2- and 4-place snowmobile trailers, the old boat with our Trailblazer.... after driving 100+ miles pulling the Maxum, we're using the truck to pull the new boat - LOL!

F/s, 89 POS Bayliner Capri, 125 mercury motor spitting out about 100 horse........

now we can pull into Friday Harbor and no longer feel like poor white trash - LOL!

Awesome boat. How many hours?

Also, how are the seats holding up? I'm curious how well mine will do.

we just picked the boat up last night - our maiden voyage w/b tomorrow, so I can comment on the seats then.... as for hours, it has 200 on it now. I expect that value to increase exponentially in the very near future!

I do have a question. That's my boat also, I have always had an outboard. When and how often do you use the blower. Thanks.

you use the blower every time you start the motor.... run it for about 3 minutes..
