As promised, here are some first day pics of our new Grady Marlin! (New to us)

My gorgeous wife Sonya at the dealer before signing away our lives
(She's the best) And its her birthday!



On the road. I trully realized how big this thing is when it went under a low overpass and barely cleared the radar.



In the water before going into the slip for the first time.



Name of the boat? "Here We Go". I let Sonya make the call. Plus I/we were put on the spot when the bank decided that they wanted a Coast Guard Documented Boat. Ugh,,,,Its growing on me :wink:

Nice boat!
"Here we go!" - Sounds good to me?

It looks like it is missing the passanger seat in one of the pictures?

I've got a 3/4 ton dodge diesel, but I don't plan on hauling it. Its in a slip where it will stay except for service. Its a heavy boat, but it really seemed to tow nicely from my perspective. That 3 axle trailer was really under a lot of stress though!

Thanks to all for the kudos and thoughts! Its a dream come true!
