I finally stepped out of my SHARKEY BULLET 130 and into a sweet 28' Checkmate. Very happy with the quality of this boat. They build a real fine ride....

Welcome Sharky! I love to see the East Coasters! I was born and raised in Philly and spent my summers on the Jersey shore around Cape May and Wild Wood! Great looking Mate!

Thanks Bill!
My first day out with the Checkmate after I bought it was with a Poker Run from Toms River to Atlantic City for an over night stay at Trumps Marina. Took the Ocean all the way down and when the seas got kickin' the next day we all took the Intercoastal on the way back. The boat ran flawlessly. Skipped across 4 to 5 footers on the way down with no problem. What a big difference from doing that in my 13 footer!

I am now getting it ready to do again at the end of this month. I am upgrading the prop shafts to the latest style. The originals were eating up prop washers like crazy. The old ones were pitted when I got it. So with that, I saw a need for the change. Better to do them now before I lost an entire case and prop...

Hi Sharkey,
What kind of speed did you end up getting with your Cmate 28' OB? Are the Mercs 280 OS? You have a beatiful boat.
