Default Life is full of surprises!

Wife and I drove to the dealer today to get our 2020 Ranger 2080 winterized. But instead of taking it home when finished we unexpectedly traded it in for my almost dream boat sitting on the floor. The 2019 621 Cup has a 350 Verado with 89 hours and a 15 hp EFI pro kicker. It comes with a Garmin Panoptics in the console, which I know nothing about, and a HB Helix 12 on the dash, Helix 10 bow and Helix 7 stern. Teleflex hydraulic steering and DTS, which I know nothing about also. Back to the dealer tomorrow to finish up the paperwork. Life is sure full of surprises sometimes! Cheers, Dixiedawg

Way to go! I love surprises and stories like this. When you got out of bed that morning, you had no clue, no intention something this good and this fun was gonna happen. Great decision and it is good to read happy stories like this. You are gonna love your panoptix. I am old school and have been slow to adapt to my panoptix but my son keeps encouraging me to stick with it. I took it out Sunday AM and used a jigging rap and caught a steady stream of crappies, gills and some nice largemouth. Enjoy!

I guess if you have to settle on an "almost" dream boat that one isn't a bad way to go!! Congratulations!!
