New boat

[BigIrv]

Okay, so I don't have all the riches in the world. But this year at the boat & sportsmen show I got in touch with Riverside Yamaha in St. Albert. Well it just so worked out that I was able to get a new G3 Guide V143T. It is a 14' aluminum with new custom Bear Trailer and I put my existing (or old) 1993 Yamaha 40 hp 2 stroke on. What a unit!! I love this boat. It handles great, the motor works awesome and top speed is estimated between 35-40 kph.
Great out of the hole, lots of storage, and an all around great starter boat. Although I had a bigger 16' fiberglass before, this boat is soooo much better.

I really have to give props (no pun intended) to Andrew at Riverside Yamaha in St. Albert. He worked with me to get the boat I wanted and the level of service I recieved from him and the rest of the staff there was aweomse!! These G3 boats are pretty well know in the states and hopefully they will become so here as well. Riverside really looked after me and got me on the water with an awesome little machine!!!

I've attached some pics. If you see my Autobot boat (got the Transformer decal for my son) out and about on Edmonton area lakes, come say hi!!

Tight lines everyone!!

perfect boat. but does it 30 to 40kph or mph it looks like it would just fly. Awsome boat.

The snow in the one pic was from April when I picked it up.

I don't drive to the lake with rods in the rod holders, people would just look at me really funny!

Tried to use the GPS on my phone to get a speed but it wouldn't pick me up on the lake. Said I was 'off route', HAHA!!

Works really good so far and handles awesome. Quality of the G3 is really good too, and this is their lower end!

I bought the similar Version of your new boat. .
I have the Legen 151 angler with a 40 4stk Merc .
And like yourself I used to own a fiberglass clunker.
This is the best toy I've ever owned.
Light , fast and easy to get around in.

Hope you have as much fun in yours as I have in mine.

Good purchase !!!!!!
