Thanks guys!
Ya BB that shed holds everything for me since I don't have a barn or garage yet!
Wood Pellets for winter stove, snow blowers, yard equipment, bikes, you name it!
My boys had fun tearing down the old one years ago!

I came home from work to see the entire shed spray painted with graffiti :doh:

Guess...mom thought if would be fun for them to do? :lol:

Splashed her for 2nd time this afternoon. Huge improvement with the Smart Tabs. Not just in speed but handling also. Seemed to pickup and go right away! I ran alone with 45lb ballast bag in front hatch. Topped out at 15mph but felt more on plane. Never felt that smooth first launch.
