Just got the boat last week. Was able to get one day on lake Huron before the rainy weather. Hoping to get out more before the season ends. Glad to have found this forum.

Welcome to the forum and Congratulations on your new boat, I bet you were having a blast before the rainy weather

Thank you and yes, it's a great boat. I didn't push the speed, but it cruises pretty good around 40 mph. Here's the boat.

I find mine runs well anywhere from 38-45 cruising. Slower than 38 and it falls off plane. It can hold 35, but soon as you hit a wave it's done for. top is 65.

I thought the reason for the triple axle trailer was that you could lose a wheel and keep rolling?
And yet you carry TWO spare?!

I only have a double axle trailer, and made it home on 3 wheels last fall... two didn't hold air and thus one exploded and burned up on me. Having 16.5" wheels and being a Sunday NO ONE had tires... so.. I drove it home!

Now I put 4 new wheels/tires on it, 16" wheels which are MUCH more common and can be found anywhere. I also kept one of the old wheels/tires for a spare.
