we purchased our first boat back in the mid '60s .... for 10 years or so we owned 3 .... every one (new and preowned) was purchased from a dealership and were rigged to where we could drive out of their parking lot and drive directly to a lake .... I guess the phrase "ignorance is bliss" would pretty well sum up much of my boating history because up until recently I never even considered questioning how a boat was rigged .... we purchased our current boat back in '04 and it seems to do OK .... that said, I have no clue if it was setup so as to get the most out of it .... the only folks I can think of to ask are the ones at the dealership where it was purchased .... I know a good number of folks who own boats and they are pretty much in the same boat (pardon the pun :redface
that I am .... they buy a boat, use it, if they like it they keep it, if they don't they move on .... the question is, if you couldn't do so yourself, how would you go about finding a person who you could have evaluate your boat so as to determine if it is properly rigged for performance and economy
