I think you're gonna find out in a hurry that boat will be a handful at first, especially with a big chopper on it. I can imagine your excitement to get on the water with it, we've all been there. Just make sure you have your safety gear and don't expect to run it balls out the first day. Having another boat in the water with you is also a great idea
I'm going to definitely stay within my comfort zone with the boat. I'd also like to have another boat out there for added comfort, which is one of the reasons I'm posting. My comfort zone may only be 60mph, it may be balls to the wall, I have no idea yet. What kind of safety gear do you guys usually bring with you other than the basics? (The ministry required)
A GOOD life jacket (a lot of guys use lifeline vests), an ignition kill tether, and eye protection are the "above and beyond" standard. And above all, common sense lol.... If you're gonna be in town for more than a few hours, let me know. Always good to put a face to the names
