    2014, Keuka Lake NY, Who's Up For A Get-together??

    Wow that boat is beautiful. It is exactly what I want someday with the 525. I am planning to sell my 251 in the spring. If you still have it for sale I will be interested. What kind of speed and RPM's are you seeing?

    Redneck AC

    I looked at those back in the spring too, I didn't think it would do a whole lot. So I put the $40 in the gas tank instead. :banana: I might have to re-visit the idea now. Did you use a block of ice or a bag?

    interior lighting

    They don't blind me at night at all. They just light up the lower part of the cockpit. My buddy has the same lights in red inside his boat. They are not nearly as impressive as the blue.

    interior lighting

    Thanks, It turned out great. It was easy, all I did was zip tie the rope light under the side wall and around the engine hatch. There is already wires mounted up there so why make it difficult? Took about 15 minutes and half a bag of zip ties. I also put Blue weather proof LED lights on my...
