    Hey, I posted this last year, I believe it's the boat. So, in my mind, that either secures me a joyride in the future or you'll end up shooting me!


    Congrats, that's an incredible boat, Bill!

    I heard he was scared of all those extra gauges and levers at the helm what with 2 engines and all.

    ------Glad you like it and hopefully this will answer those pesky questions about weather the Fino really exists or not. The dock is in a little harbor (just twelve docks) just about a mile north of my house and fits my needs exactly. Totally protected. Actually took Jan out to dinner last night by water. Hope to do a lot of that.
    ------You may have noticed the picture with the thumbs-up. Jan said I shouldnt post the one with the other digit!!!
    ------Names are being processed. Latest mentioned is "SHWING". Another is "FUGAWE". A third is "FINOLLY" (word play on Fino). Really have my doubts on that last one, but none seem quite right yet. Its a work in progress.......Bill S

    Now I know what took so long to get the pictures up - he had to wait until he got the matching red dock lines. Can't post pictures with annoying black ones!

    Boat looks great! Of course you're not off the hook yet - we all need to know some performance numbers next.....

    Bill,
    What a fabulous looking boat! It might look even better in the water than the pictures on ebay. Out of curiosity, what is the weight? Bill

    A big You're Welcome back atcha. That's great you ended up owning it.

    Normally I'd say don't sweat the joyride, but considering the boat I'll say I'M THERE this time!

    Enjoy, those are beautiful photos.
