My first boat, 85 Nordic
« on: October 17, 2011, 04:17:21 PM »
Hello All,
I have always been a car guy and one of my buddies I race with also had an injected alcohol flatty that I fell in love with the parker strip on.  I decided to get something after many years for myself that we could actually make it up and down on a busier weekend without sinking so I just picked up this 22' Nordic from Las Vegas.  Had it out twice, first trip was just fixing everything that was broken and two weekends ago on Mohave, she ran great.  55.7 on the GPS and no problems all weekend.  Still needs a good clean up and knick knacks, but happy with her so far.  Anyone familiar with this hull or know if it had a named besides the day cruiser label?  Oh yeah, its a 454 BBC, mostly stock, dominator pump with a droop.

The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

Thanks for the compliments and you are right, it is big. Was wanting something that could handle a holiday weekend on parker. Hopefully it will get by but at 55mph not expecting much speed outta her

Thanks Nordic454.  She look familiar?  Bought from a guy that lives in your neck of the woods.

I've actually never seen it before surprisingly enough. I would have been drooling if I had.
