    Default My New 09 Outback V

    We've had the boat about 3 weeks and finally remembered to take some pictures. The boat was ordered for a boat show without the wakeboard tower and the dealer installed one in polished stainless.

    So far we have about 8.3 hours on it and have been smiling for each and every one of them. I also got my first air on the wakeboard tonight. Not quite wake to wake but I did come completely out of the water.

    We're too close to Jordan Lake, NC to justify going anywhere else. It's 30 minutes from the time we leave the house until we pull away from the dock.

    Congrats! Lookin' good! I bought a boat from a guy in Cary a few years ago. I was amazed at your lakes around there when I went up to retrieve it. I have been contemplating a summer trip up that way for about 5 years now. Please post lots of pics. Maybe you can give us some info on where to go where we can park the boat at the campsite.

    We trailer the boat back and forth to Jordan Lake. There are no homes on the lake and only one small marina with a several year wating list. Lots of camping though.

    The boat was bought off the showroom floor, the only Outback V they had. The wife loved the colors.

    We didn't choose the tower, that's just the one they installed for us. It folds down very easily, remove one knob in the center, pull a small pin next to it and both pieces fold backwards. I prefer the looks of the factory tower but really have no complaints about the Monster. The dealer even altered the cover to fit around the aftermarket tower.

    We wanted a v-drive and the Outback was the only one that would fit straight on in our garage. The dealer even brought it to our house (70 miles each way) to make sure it would fit. After the sale he came and picked it up to take it to have the swing tongue installed on the trailer and brought it back once it was finished. With the boat pushed against the back wall the garage door clears the bow with less than 2 inches to spare.

    Now thats dealer service man. Thats a dealer looking out for its customers. My boat is the same in the garage. Wedged with a big shoe horn lol.
