Congratulations Art and Diane on your soon to be new tug! I wonder who's tug that is going to be that our little boy was sitting on the swim step at the factory. He was all smiles because he thought we were getting that boat! Jeff and Julie

Sorry Tom, I see that you stated in your post that this was changed in later boats. Hopefully we won't have that issue. Thanks again!!

Steve and Tom, Thanks for the info. We have not heard this noise so maybe it was something they later changed in the hull design? We are picking up our boat in a couple of weeks and will do a complete run through of everything then. Jeff and Julie

Thanks Rick! I was wondering what your feelings are about leaving Alaska? Julie

Welcome Steve! We have seen a few Osprey boats around here while out fishing. We also saw several when we were up in Sitka, AK. Jeff and Julie

Congratulations on your new boat!! It was meant to be that you were looking for a green one and one magically appeared on the site for sale!!

Thanks Charlie and yes, that is it. In fact, it is blue! We went with the 25' since we still want to be able to trailer it without too much trouble. Julie

Just placed an order with ConsumerMarine. Their quote beat out everyone. Thanks for the great feedback!! Julie

We went with an aluminum pilot house called a Kingfisher. "Fishin is the Mission" with Jeff and I wanted a little bit of comfort. This boat seems to be a great happy medium for both of us. Julie

Since November 2004, we have been reading this site and preparing to upgrade our 18’ runabout. The knowledgeable postings/people on this site have been instrumental in helping us decide what we really want/need in a boat. Whenever we have a question, this site is the first place (and usually...

Thanks Gary and John for the replies. I will check out those two sites and the quote idea is great advice. Julie

Thanks for the link AKDeweyJ. I checked the prices and it looks like Spindocelectronics is lower.

Anyone have any experience ordering from this site? They seem to have one of the best prices around on the Raymarine C-80. I also see that Raymarine has a rebate going on right now so I think we will probably be ordering before that time expires. Thanks, Jeff and Julie

Looks like the boat you want may be for sale in San Diego!!

Jim, We were also looking at Boater's World. I know that for outfitting a boat, they can also call their Corporate and get a discount right in their store. I am not sure if it is as good as 20% though. Julie

Thanks for the replies! We just wanted to make sure that the radome seemed adequate, 18". We think we will be very happy with the C80 system. The functionality looks great and it seems to be fairly user friendly. Jeff and Julie

We are looking at getting a bundled electronics package, Raymarine C80. This bundle includes the Raymarine 2D 2kw 18" Radome radar antenna. Does anyone have any experience with this or thoughts on if this radome is adequate? Thanks, Jeff and Julie

Well, I am not quite "savy" on this stuff but here is what I saw. The hull was in one room of the plant and the cabin was in the other. The hull had the bow thruster installed and it looked like the propeller assembly (??) was in, swim step, etc. The cabin didn't have a door cut out or...

OK. I got some pictures. I am not sure if they are anything new but I can send them to whomever may want them. Julie

Thanks for the replies. Norm, I will PM you. Julie
