Re: What model and where ya from?

Just picked up our new H180 last weekend, love it so far. Blower fuse blew first day, factory installed wrong fuse size, otherwise a great day.

Ah yes, the blower fuse. Blew out on us after a day trip too. Hope your 180 runs as good as ours does too!

Anyone else notice if their boats run better/smoother the more you run it?

Re: What model and where ya from?

I boat mostly at Lake Clarke and Raystown.
I have just sold my Regal 220 Valenti and bought this 2000 Horizon 260 with the 5.7GXi and Volvo Duoprop.
Only 62 hours on it. I was surprised how well it get's a big load up on plane. I had 11 people, 80 gallons of gas and full fresh water tank on board a few weeks ago shuttling people from beach to sandbar and she jumped right up on plane and right up to 35-40.
I love it so far.

Re: What model and where ya from?

I recently purchased an 86 liberator 211 that sat exposed to the weather for a couple of years. The hull was good but needed a good cleaning. The block was cracked and interior was shot. Installed a 400 chevy and am replacing the seats and carpet. I had it out to Lake Clarke (York co. Pa.) to work out the bugs and will be going to North East Md. when I get the interior finished. I live in Manheim, Pa.

Just bought my first boat, 2003 Four Winns Freedom 180 with the Volvo 4.3.

Had its maiden voyage around Tampa Bay and Harbour Island.

Anyone know the difference between the FW Horizon and Freedom model? I can find no information and both boats look virtually identical.

Re: What model and where ya from?

Coming in very late on this thread, but I like to say hello to all those here. Some know, others may know, from other forums. I am an originally a die hard car guy and boating came with my marriage?. (Yes the admiral calls every thing However, after 13 years of marriage I am getting very into boating? meeting very nice people in water?. Share the thoughts? have fun? It is a great place to be...
Oh,I almost forgot currently we have a 2008 H260 (Horizon) VP8.1GI/DP
LOVE this boat in big water?. We live in Boston area but we boat in St Lawrence River/1000 Islands area in Upstate New York where our summer house is located.
See you on water?.
