That's a great looking boat with a lot of character Joe.
I hope you enjoy the hell out of it.

Why thank you JR. I enjoy her all the time.
As for the character... she has charm, and sails with grace and speed.

What kind of Ford truck do you have?

Had 2 Ford Pick-ups. A '72 F100, and an 85 F-150 XLT lariat.
with 2 Chevy sht bx's in between. The Family got bigger and went to a FS
Blazer and now drive a GMC Yukon to tow the boat (Matilda 20). The pickups
were 2x4 and a bit light in the rear end to come up the launch ramp well.
The Blazer and Yukon do quite well.

72's a cool year.

I had a 72 that got stolen. It was sweet... 351 windsor,3 on the
tree, AC that would freeze you and a new midnight blue emron paint job
with crager SS rims. Had it less than 3 mo before it was stolen. I
think it's the 72's that have only 5 diffrent keys for all trucks..

Bet you love filling up the gas tank on the Yukon;0)

Actually for a 6000lb truck the Yukon doesn't do all that bad.
On a recent trip from Pa to Fla and back I averaged about 18mpg.
