Southern hasn't been on since Irma? Not sure why as he was active before that. I sent him a PM last week and have not heard back. I might have his number in the pm though I'll check to see what he's up to.

No and I thought I had his number in a PM but I couldn't find it.
Can't believe he left us here all alone for the winter.

Just traded 2016 R5 with 350 Merc. Would do 51 mph in right conditions with 2 passengers. Always did at least 48 mph. Loved the boat. Just traded for r7 surf because we are to old to ski anymore :). Btw, I have a new cobalt oem mooring cover and a new top both black if you have need? Both are designed for R5 with arch. Trying to sell right now.
Do you still have the R5 top?

I sure do. The Bimini top is brand new. The mooring cover was used 2-3 times when it looked like rain. I will pm you my info if you want to discus. Thanks. Jim.
