What a bummer... I wouldn't be able to stand it.. The day I brought the Four Winns home we had to go somewhere right after that(casino).. All I wanted to do was go back home and get in it start her up.. check it all over...:D I begged to go home even though we was winning.. lol

Well it was a score fella had to sell it, so he could store his new boat.. The trim motor was out... It is the dreaded OMC Cobra.. Even with that I had to get her... $60 later we was on the water... I have had other little things that come with boat ownership and what not, but I love the thing and is one of my best buys.... I did a lot of shopping

Its got the 4.3lx in it. The dealer said 190hp.... in a 17foot boat, I'm thinking 45mph!

hmmmmmmmmmmm 53-55 Mph even. My 18ft with 4.3 2 bbl will do low 50,s on a good day. When newer, and before I dinged my prop up, would do HI 50s !

LOL speed.. Man 55 is getting it on the water... I got on one of those 90 MPH bass boats... OMG that is butt puckering, ground kissing speed.. If it runs 48-55 you will be satisfied and it will smoke 3.0's all day long.. By the time they make speed you are 1/4 mile ahead
