    The boat will be rigged up with a T9.9, HDS 8 & 7, Marine band(flush mounted on dash) w/ 8′ galaxy, Sirius radio/weather, On board charger, Terrova w/ Ipilot, SS Rails w/ Rod Holders, Smooth Move seats, Keel Gaurd, 4th seat, custom stereo and canvas craft custom snap cover that will also cover both motors.

    Here is a little layout I made for the guys so there was no confusion!

    Looks mint, Corey!! I’d like some pix of the cover on the boat, when it’s all done. I’m curious to why you decided to cover both the motors and where the snaps are gonna be to do that. Or are the motor covers seperate from the main cover?

    Awesome set-up!

    If that doesn’t make my wait worse, I don’t know what will.

    Sweet looking rig Corey. I’ll have to try and connect with you when I’m up in GR this summer (if your around). I guess worst case scenario, I could bother your dad and compliment him on his 2100.

    Mike the cover will be one full piece. I had a kicker on my last boat but put it on after I had the cover made but the plate was there and the main motor was covered. There will be snaps(2 or 3) in between the 2 motors. Then on the bottom edge of the motor covers there is small bungee that you wrap around. They do an awesome job!

    I still havent decided what color I am going to go with. Either blue or a darker grey. Black would look nice but shows dirt too much and also gets smokin hot.

    Haha thanks, I am up there every weekend unless for some bad reason I am working out of town. Now now no need to make my dad think his is better looking lol. We have already had that discussion way to many times and having people take votes.

    Nice!

    Its going to be tougher to spot you out there next year. No more trolling with the 300?

    Thats what I was going for . Trolling with the 300 was by accident if you are talking about the 2day at ML. We had a few too many and forgot to charge the boat for sunday

    So your the guy! I think I heard about you last weekend Corey. A close friend of mine who I wont mention (JC) mentioned one of his buddies and his dad both bought new 21′ Skeeters. Your name came up as we were impressing upon the customer service Skeeter is putting forth lately.

    Congrats on your new Rig!

    You getting it rigged at Stubs? If you need someone to sit with you while you rip it across the chain of lakes I might know someone.

    I had the boat rigged at Stubs and Ryan did an awesome job. I was also there on Friday rigging it from 7-2. Really liked how everything turned out.

    I did my 1hr at 2000rpms and 1 hr at 3000rpms this weekend so the motor had its recommended break in. I opened it up on the way in and fastest I got was 60.8mph. I am sure it will get better as it gets more time on it. Boat could use some more lift so I will get that done.

    Colors are nassua and black galaxy mainly. Well now out to the garage to start the buffer!!

    What’s the plan for that?

    btw, does Stubs have any WXs this spring?? I saw a 2000T there last year with no motor and an older 1990 or 1950 ? I’d think that’d be a decent area to move Skeeters.

    Again, congrats on the boat.

    I haven’t been in there for awhile but they usually have a 2000T in the showroom. They also have this used 1950 right now sitting outside. They have had it all winter.

    Getting some custom prop work done! Cupping and we’ll see what else they think.

    Well I think they might have had one showing up sat Stubs sells a lot of Skeeters! I think on the floor right now they have a 2000t, 1850 & 1900.
