Awesome boat and trailer. Great combo. How's that boat run?

Let's see some more boats. This is an awesome boat show!!!

I really liked the frontier also, was a hard choice, dealing with Eric at G and F in Raceland and going meet Keith who owns Blazer, had a lot to do with getting the Blazer instead of the Frontier. I think both boats are really good.

Really smooth ride. And pretty quick for a bay boat. Handles like a Cadillac, but my last boat was an express so not much to compare it to

So far couldn't be happier with it. I have a friend with a 2000 model and he still loves it. Time will tell.

Only reason I didnt go with the blazer was bc. The seats in the back weren't flip up like frontier. I felt the kids won't be safe in a swivle seat sitting in the back.

I'm certain I saw this boat the other day in Lafayette getting onto I-10 west I believe. Was that you?

marshrunner757 12-30-2014 08:28 AM

Would have been yesterday afternoon. I picked it up in Houma and brought it back to Sulphur.

I was looking at the yacht.. Then started reading and saw something about a Nitro and had to refocus on the first pic. My buddy got a z7 bass boat in May. Those boats are real nice.

Details:
20' CC
Boat name: Visco
Yamaha 115 4stoke
60 gal fuel (roughly 250 miles per tank)
Garmin 740s chart plotter
MinnKota trolling motor with I-pilot
smart tabs (trim tabs)
draft 12"

I got my 2013 Tidewater Adventurer before leaving NC last year and so far it has been a good boat to me. The only main issues has been that a drain plug was not installed from the factory in the center console and it is not considered a sealed (waterproof) console. I wish my dealer would have told me this as it would have been a key piece of information. She drafts 12" water and is considered a deep "V" which is a plus when I get into rough weather. I decided to go with the Yamaha 115 fourstroke for the fuel economy and it has been flawless so far with almost 170 hours on her. I can make four trips from Myrtle Grove to Grand Isle on one tank of fuel (60 Gal) and that includes running around GI looking for the fish. I could push it to five trips but do not like running it past a 1/4 tank of fuel.

Yea that was a typo. 5600 rpm is full throttle. And thanks I'm really enjoying it!
