My old man has been thinking of getting a boat for a couple of years and finally made the leap after my mom and him loved my 19" Maxum.

The dealer is going to deliver it to his house. Since he didn't see it yet I took the liberty of conspiring with my mother and my sister about putting a name on a boat. I picked the font because of our ancestors and the name after him :)

2011 Regal 2300 w/ a Volvo Penta (duno the displacement)

What do you guys think?

Re: My old man just got a new boat.

We got it today, they delivered it to the house, he was very excited to get it. He was also very surprised to see the name on it and had a big grin. The guy who dropped it off worked with us for three hours to show my old man the ropes. That EFI starts up very nicely compared to my carb. That boat turns on a dime with what felt very little skid. It also pops right out of the hole. He managed to catch me off guard a couple of times with his sudden changes in speed. One time I fell on the guy from the dealer. It does have a lot of bells and whistles.

My old man also got this jetdock where you drive the boat ontop of it to get it out of water. He was very nervous doing that for the first time as I was even though I wasn't in boat. At least he didn't bend his prop like he did to mine lol
