Posted about new R5 in general area since more new activity there. Buying new r5 now with Volvo 300hp. Appreciate your r5 feedback and experience and engine comments. Thanks.
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.

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.
