Just got word she will be here Monday.
Got to the dealer today with a fucked up prop. Dealer is replacing it and hopefully we get her tomorrow. At least my dealer pits it in the water and makes sure she's correct before I even take it on the water with them.

We wanted a yellow trailer to match the welt. That's our flashy part of this whole thing.
Just caught the welt on second glance....first time I've seen mustard & chocolate.Quote:

Would not be my choice of color on the trailer, but to each their own...now load that thing up with weight and lets see how big the wave is.
Ditto hereQuote:

Prop was fucked. Dealer won't let us take her till it's perfect. It wasn't my choice either, but I only own half the boat. My pops wanted much more yellow than he got. But I actually like the yellow it's pretty standout ish.Quote:

Any plans for your maiden voyage?
I'm going to Lake Stevens about 10 min from my house to knock out the 10 hours. Then we will be surfing the rest of the week till Saturday. The weekend will be spent on Lake Whatcom.Quote:

Would like to have a seen a pic of the prop to see how badly it was damaged. Wondering how they managed to do that in transit??

Idk why the prop wasn't right. I do know it was a 950 not a 945. SC is now shipping makai with the 950 since the cup is a bit stiffer than the 945. Well to get the 950 warrantied was going to take a few days so they grabbed a 945 off a new Max and put it on my Makai. She ran great in their tests last night. So I'm going to get her today at noon. I ordered a 950 for my backup prop.
950 is what came with ours too. Love itQuote:

If you run out of storage on Makai you have too much stuff on the boat with you ! [emoji1787]

I was thinking how many friggen jackets is he taking????!!!! [emoji38]
Get the bags AND the lead. That huge boat needs huge weight. Why delay the inevitable and suffer a small wave in the mean time?
