I wanted that boat! I couldn't convince my CFO (wife) to let me spend that much, so I put a low-ball offer on it. I was sad to hear I had lost it earlier this week.

Anyway congratulations to you, that is a sweet rig man!

Thanks man! Yea I couldn't offer much less than asking price. It was 5k-10k less than all other A22's for sale on OnlyInboards. I did get him to through in a LF surfboard, since he is an LF Rep. Hoping I can get some other good gear out of him!

For those that don't make it to WW. I finally got the boat picked up!

Well after 24 hour straight trip we have our new boat home safe and sound and even got out on our lake for a little bit on Saturday. Here are some updated pics of boat and family!

I would like to make a huge shout out to all of the guys at Gull Lake Marine! Those guys are top notch! They helped us through the whole process and took very good care of us. They took the extra time to make sure the P&P bags were done right, the boat was ready to tow 500 miles, and never complained about taking us on a test ride in the rain at 45 degrees. All of the staff was very helpful and friendly! Thanks guys from Gull Lake and come visit anytime!! The Dealership did throw in the board racks!!

Disclaimer: I received a lot of flak on WW. Yes my son does not have a life jacket on. That is my choice. I was not raised in a "bubble wrap" world and don't want him to be either, I personally think we protect ourselves from to much. However with that said, after all the posts and suggestions on WW, yes I will more than likely make him wear a jacket more often. Please refrain from busting my ass about the life jacket situation. Thanks in adavance!!

And he got his butt whooped for having shoes on seat!

Very nice bro. Yea I saw that thread on WW. I feel kids should wear it but thats your bus. Lol people gave you some shit huh? Anyways congrats brotha. Sounds like the dealership hooked you up. I thought my drive was far to pick up my boat (6hours) but damn, 24 hours! Looks like it was worth it though. Again man welcome to the club and congrats
