Been mostly absent this forum quite a while now. All because I recently added this 2002 Aquasport Osprey 2150 Tournament Master, with a 200 HP, V6 2-stroke FI Yamaha to the stable. Been spending a lot of my time trying to get it ready for water this year. Still a few weeks of good October weather to look forward to! Clocked out via GPS at 50 mph on a glassy lake I am told.

Re: New Addition To The Vehicle Collection
Not being a boat person, wouldn't those steps up the side create a lot of drag?

That's cool, Pete but I don't want to look too close as I might get the boat bug and want one myself.

Re: New Addition To The Vehicle Collection
It is becoming somewhat of a chore already, as it has a great hull, an excellent engine, and I just ordered a brand new tandem axle Venture trailer, due to be delivered this week, but the wiring is terrible. Sound familiar?
Looking at a complete rewiring this Winter. To get it into the water this month, I just need to get the VHF and the bilge pump working. Them we will launch it in Pleasant Bay Chatham/Orleans and tool around a bit and check it out!

Just noticed this very similar boat (i think) in my neighborhood.

Re: New Addition To The Vehicle Collection
Center console versus my split console, but it does look like an Aquasport! They make a lot of different models, very large manufacturer. I am working on replacing or repairing the fold down bench seat and some wiring issues at this point.

Re: New Addition To The Vehicle Collection
Picked up a brand new Venture trailer yesterday, old trailer is available. Listed for $700 on CL, $600 to anyone here, can deliver within a reasonable distance. If interested, I can give the good and bad. Has MA title and is registered.
