    Just Got This

    Hey guys,

    I guess I'm in the club. I've been looking for a Classic 18 for a while and just bought this one today. Its a 2004. Need to find a trailer somewhere down here in Tampa. Ultimately am going to haul it up to our cabin inNorthern Wisconsin.

    Its a saltwater boat but was really well taken care of. Taking it out for a little spin this afternoon.

    Congratulations and Welcome!

    What a great looking boat. I'm sure many will jump in with trailer suggestions.

    Where in Wisconsin? I used to boat over in Wisconsin when I lived in Rockford, IL.

    We are on LCO near Hayward. Its a 5000 acre lake and is perfect for this boat.

    Congrats!

    That's a beautiful boat. Good luck with it. The drive tilt is very high compared to mine.

    Gorgeous, congrats! Great color scheme. (Drop it in Kentucky and you can run it at AOTH in May before northern WI thaws out. ) -Mike
