Next, start posting the various mods and accessories you have done to your fun machine.
completely redid my 202. new dash and switch panels, graphs, tm, added pump out, air pump to livewell, all new switches/gauges, new carpet deck extension, 2 93sv plus with a force tm, comfortroll tray, stereo, mk precision 4 bank, all new deka batteries, etc. have a bob's 8" hydraulic to install still but waiting to see if I can find a bigger engine first, has a 6" with spacers now. this is the last boat I will ever own. now all I want is a 250 or 300 xs to upgrade from the 200 and panoptix for the graphs.

Now THIS ... boys and girls ...is a BOAT. I agree that's a good lookin' ride......I understand they are very fast. Why don't we see more of them on the water? Especially here in East TX......I bet I only see 2-3 a year. Now THIS ... boys and girls ...is a BOAT. I agree that's a good lookin' ride......I understand they are very fast.

Did see one at a fishing show a couple times a number of years ago.

You all have some beautiful vessels! Primarily throughout my fishing career aside from running a Nitro Boat nearly 20 years ago I have primarily been fishing out of Triton Boats. I always enjoyed my Tritons and had very little problems with them aside from common motor issues, which had nothing do with the vessel itself. I certainly have more faith in a Yamaha Motor but I know that everyone has their own opinions based on the good or bad experiences in which they have had with those two brands. As far as my Triton Boats were concerned I had little to no problems with any of them. I have ridden in Ranger boats before and have been absolutely blown away at how large and wide the decks on those boats are, it is very obvious that those boats are built to last for a very long time! I would one day like to have some experience behind the wheel of a Skeeter or even a Bass Cat as I feel that they are certainly the most sexy boats on the market today. I will likely be purchasing a new bass boat towards the end of this year if my health conditions continue to improve and allow me to get back into professional fishing in 2021. From everyones experience with various boats and considering that I am primarily an offshore structure fisherman who loves when the wind is blowing extremely hard to where I have many gallons of water often being thrown over the bow of my boat while trying my best to stay over top of a productive deep-water area on those extremely windy days which boat do you think is best to handle fishing in extremely rough conditions offshore? I have bad hips so the less impact that my boat will endure during those days the better. Thank you all very much for your input and keep sharing the great pictures!

Yeah, it does pretty decent on top end. Not as fast as a Bullet or Allison, but not bad for an 1800 lb hull.
