  • Finally on the water with our first boat!

    We bought our Prostar 209 in late Sept. My wife and I had it out once in early Oct before it went in the garage for the winter. I pulled it out a few weeks ago and it's been sitting in the driveway, waiting. There was always something keeping us from getting to the lake; Work, weather, other plans, etc.
    Saturday, the stars and the moon were in line, so we FINALLY made it out.

    My wife bought me a waterproof camera for Christmas, so I took a swim to get some photos. Just had to share one or two.

    If I was ordering new, I wouldn't have picked brown, but it's ok with us now that it's ours. Ready for family fun!

      nice...what waterway were you on? I remember when I got mine...bought in august...brought it home on saturday...had to wait a week to take her out...was a very long week.

      Did you you sit in her over the winter and make motor sounds...there was a thread about that here that started in late winter when we were all getting a bit antsy,

        That was at Morse Lake.

        I did a lot of work / picked over it during the winter... so we did sit in it a few times for a drink... or two.

        My son got behind the wheel and made the motor sounds, so I lived that part of my life through him.

          I like the color. Beautiful boat.
