gratz + good luck with the new ride

re: the trophy: aside from size, what were your likes/dislikes??

Im looking at trophys myself as possible first boat.

hows the marina you are in? i'll be 'shopping' that same area for potential slip or rack.

it looks like she sits real high off the water.. Can I assume your rails, when standing in the boat are up to the average persons thigh.  That is great for rough water, your legs don't take a beating.

SeaRay made some sweet models and the Amberjack was one of them. 86 was the last real SeaRay. It was sold to Brunswick at the end of 86, and you could see the differences in the 87's. These boats ride like tanks and can blast through a chop with a smooth ride.
Good luck with the boat.
