Hello all!

#1 Post by Bill1031 » Mon Feb 08, 2010 5:36 pm

Just wanted to say hello, I found this forum on a google search and have spent a few hours reading some of the posts. Had a little trouble registering but that is all good now. I have had a few mono hull boats in the past and the most recent was a 2009 bow rider. Last week I put a deposit down on a new 2010,Bennie, 2275RLI w/ESP, with 150 Yamaha. Have not been able to take delivery due to weather conditions in VA. Getting anxious for spring!!! Never had a toon before and had never even heard of a tri-toon till this last summer. The posts have been great reading. Bill

Welcome
Looks like you made a good choice. Toons are all I have had the 20 years or so. Bet you will not want go back to the mono hull, once you take your new one out once or twice.

smltooner, I sent you an email but maybe you have changed email. We are very close, so I may see you on the lake this summer. We are currently in Fredericksburg but bought our future retirement home in Moneta. We keep the boat at Websters and travel down most weekends. Congratulations on your retirement and the purchase of your new home. Bill
