    Really liked this prop, only downfall was when I had the additional 2200lbs of weight in the boat she will not plane until dropping a 1000 of it.

    Holy crap.... that wave from boone's SE looks long as hell and its from an unflattering angle. Really thinking I was going to make the Nautique jump, but then you see things like this.

    It seems my 720s take up the entirety of the space when full. No way those 1000 bags are full.

    I cringe when I think of how cheap lots in horse shoe bay way 19 years ago and how we passed up on them. Cost is 4x now. I will say, horse shoe bay is quite shallow, prefer further up the river all...

    New board purchase this week.

    Man, and I was really liking my phantom. Granted I’m a relative novice compared to y’all. Makes me want to try a Neptune though. If you get one, come back and fill us in on your thoughts.
