Yes I live in Memphis and found it on the internet. I happen to have family about an hour and a half from there in Lake Zurich, IL. Drove up picked up the boat, visited with my family including my 95 year old grandmother (who whipped all of our tails in a card game) and drove home in what us in the south would call a blizzard. I cannot say enough good things about the folks at Gordy's. I will be a customer for life.

I'm thinking it's a used boat. It's registered. Is that the one they had in there rental fleet?
Yes it is. Boat is in perfect shape except for a few minor dings mostly in the rub rail.
Yep I know that boat. I've been watching it for a long time. Tried to get my buddy to buy it. But heck I couldn't get him to buy the 190. And that is the best hull ever made. Again congrats.

Always a day late or a dollar short. The story of our lives.

Very cool, you passed right by me in Antioch. At least you know the boat was meticulously maintained!

Yes the maintenance records are very detailed.
My aunt and Uncle live on Lake Zurich, so obviously I knew of that lake but I had know idea how many lakes were around the area or had any knowledge of the whole Fox River chain of lakes. My wife wants to go back to Lake Geneva when its not covered in ice. It really is a beautiful little town.

Welcome from Oklahoma, and what a great intro! I can't begin to imagine getting smashed from the rear by an RV or anything else for that matter. Did you see it coming? Was your family in the truck?
Congratulations on your new boat, and glad to have you here!

Welcome from Nashville. Glad everyone walked away from that.
What lake are you on? Pickwick?

I did not see it coming. My sister and her daughter were with me and no major injuries other than the back of my left arm had some deep cuts and a bruise from the front tire of the RV. As the bruise healed and the deepest parts were still visible it was a very apparent tire tread pattern. My sister was standing next to the boat and escaped without a scratch.
