Cruising Havasu Today

[TCHB]

I sure like this boat. Smooth and quiet with lots of room.

 

[RiverDave]

Sam's new boat is bad ass!!

Weird to see the inner two motors trimmed up like that, and not the outside motors?

[sintax]

where does he keep the fishing poles?

what kind of fish is he going for there in Havasu?

 

[LargeOrangeFont]

Is there a ladder for when you beach it?

Looks like fun!

Two inside engines are mounted higher than outside engines.

Maybe part of the joystick control system?

I did not drive so I did not mess with the trims. We were trying to figure the boat out today.

Not sure how we get on and off besides a dock.

Ok. I just wasn't sure If I missed something or not about these boats.

If the top was longer for more shade and we all spent all day floating on the water, I think there would be a ton of these @ Havasu.

For the type of boating most of us do, this type of boat seems to have some challenges.

they need to build in a door like that bathtub for old people on tv. where you open the door walk in the tub close door take a seat and get a bath......that boat is bad ass....what speeds are you seeing how big is the boat.....i want a cc so bad

I believe Sam plans to use this in the Ocean. Probably just delivered to Havasu where he will have it dialed in and serviced before he heads home.

Alot of the midnights have a door on the side...Can't tell if this one is equipped?

Sweet. Ocean perfection.

If it is for the ocean, a door probably isn’t needed.

 

[spectra3279]

That sure is purdy. But that's alot of weight hanging off the back of that trailer

I understand that, but in the first photo's they are actually trimmed different.

Beautiful ride. Congrats.

 

[SBMech]

I see a tiny access door in the rear on the port side, but no footholds or anything on the outside. Do they never expect you to want to get off in the ocean without a dock?

Bitchin boat though, looks like a sweet ride!~

I will post some other pics. The shipper just raised the two lowest motors on launch because he was not familiar with the ramp. He is a pro hauler and it was his trailer. His job ended at launch / floating the boat. I was not going to argue with him at this point. lol

Boat is pretty cool - will have it here to get all setup / cover and make sure everything’s in perfect working order. I also need to make sure I know a base proficiency on operating the vessel. Way easier in LHC than on the Pacific.

It has a ladder that attaches to a bracket on the stern. It is not plush by any means. I have seen the side doors - but at this point I have other items on the list before diving off the thing. I must say the bow thruster is like cliff notes in high school. Makes it way easier - not used to having that crutch. Had the boat up to 68 today - passed a deck boat and thought they were going to pass out. Will say it is not a havasu boat. Wake on this is very similiar to full ballast huck.

Nice addition to your fleet looks like hours with your boys out fishing coming soon for you.
So if transporter was done at floating and it was his trailer, who has a temp for Havasu. Usually don’t see things that large around Havasu.

Beautiful boat Sam!!!
Congrats !!

I like the bow thruster. Moved a lot of water!

There are so many similarities in our boats! ... we should get together to compare, and go for rides!

Spotted it today while driving over the bridge. [emoji1303]

Gotta park it someplace when you don’t have a trailer. I’m gonna go down and see if there are any cold beers in the fish tank.

Nope.

Went to Springs for dinner. Radar working. Pretty cool seeing this in action on the way home. Pretty neat seeing contour / depth of the bottom heading home. Shop trailer retrofit a success. Boat is getting serviced and prepped at BCM.

 

[RiverDave]

Careful with that radar Sam! For some reason they don’t pick up sail boats.

I see radar and a Fathometer. Do you also have scanning sonar?

Do not think it is outfitted with scanning sonar. Honestly there is a lot there that I am trying to get my arms around. Completely different than the lake boating I have done my whole life. Looking forward to new adventures.

 

[stephenkatsea]

Scanning sonar is an amazing tool for offshore fishing. Consider it "under water radar". The displays are similar.
