You won't believe this.......... but Wes actually asked my wife if she wanted to test drive the trident first before asking me :cry: What's up with that ? she might be slightly better looking then me but what about the boys ah !
I gotta say first and formost this boat is stunning, we watched Wes come through the chanel and every eye was on him wondering "what the hell is this coming through" the sound and rumble of the engine is flat out bad ass, you can not imagine the stares from people as they pointed and oohed over this thing.
The test drive:
Like i said earlier, Wes asked my wife first, i guess he knows who's heart to tug at. :) oh! the test drive thats right, he first took us out and showed off its limits and then shut her down, at this point we were being schooled about the manerisms (sp) of the boat and how it handles with trim up,down, sideways etc etc. you get the picture! i totally respected that when he could have said "go ahead and drive it" but wanted us to feel comfortable and safe which meant alot to us. when i drove it the acceleration is phenominal and plains fast and nice, turns very well like a slot car and handles the chop with ease, the instruments were well located, the seats are comfy, the little details just blew me away, i kept pointing them out to my wife.
The engine is stunning to say the least, very sanitary and easy to get to things, the dual jets put out a ton of water too, the combo worked very well.
Wes and his crew did a bitchen job on the trident and i wish him nothing but the best.
Another note, Wes was not full of himself nor did he seem like "look at my bichen boat" just a down to earth guy who has a vision and a dream just like you and i.
It was cool for him to spend time and gas with me and my wife, thanks Wes :) ..........BigDoug
