Sounds like you've got a great starting list. Get the safety stuff like the scupper and plugs done first, then we'll help you spend money on the fun stuff! Also, we love pictures!

Welcome @dirksgoat. @Cobra Jet Steering LLC pointed you in the right direction. I'm sure that you'll enjoy your '07. Where are you planning on using your new boat?

 

[dirksgoat]

Mostly in Galveston, lakes every now and then. I watched a video you had on youtube in the Bahamas, I just got back from Man-o-war Cay. Love the Bahamas.

I haven't put my boat in at Galveston yet. I've been considering it, but I don't know the waters at all. At least in the Bahamas, you can see what's down below you. I'm not sure that it's worth towing from the Woodlands to Galveston. What do you think @dirksgoat ?

Maybe you'll have to join the Jet Boaters.net group on their next Bimini trip. Man-o-War looks beautiful.
