Here is mine, to say I'm crazy about it or proud of it is a HUGE under statement!

2007 Triton 20 X2 powered by a Pro XS 250. I have replaced the locators, HDS 8 on the console, HDS 7 touch on the bow. A HydroWave, Bluewater LED light kit, Bait Bars under all of the lids. I have a 10" jackplate, sitting at 4" below pad. i just tried a 27 potch Tempest Plus and have a 26 pitch Fury. Tested the Tempest on a short run on Saturday, 35 mph winds. Managed 5600 RPMs @ 72.5 mph. Can't wait to have a long stretch to get her trimmed up and full RPMs!!



Looking forward hanging out, learning and sharing with everyone!

Thanks guys for the nice comments!  I have wanted a Triton for a long time and my wife made my dream come true!! I've been going through everything on it, making it the way I want it and everything mechanical. Just finished replacing all of the wheel bearing and converting it from oil bath to grease. I plan on fishing a lot of jackpots and tournaments out of it and just want the peace of mind of knowing its all been checked over and/or replaced.

When I got it the motor was almost 5" below pad and extremely hard to drive. I've got it at just under 4" now and it's not a problem to drive at all. Plus testing where I load everything to help balance it out. Hoping for a mild winter so I can keep taking her out every weekend.
