Hi Everyone, will try to attach a picture of my 261 liberator. Getting close to boating season.

Well I thought I was going to post a picture but can't seem to find out how to post one. Maybe I need a few posts before they allow??

Nice lookin Lib!
I've seen some ugly colors in the cabins of boats built in the 80s and 90s. But yours is classic! I wouldn't change that at all. :lol:
Not sure what they called it back then but my vote is "pimpin pink". Just need to hang a disco ball in there. :D

I wasn't insulting your boat. Sorry if you took it that way. Just saying it has a great "retro" look, as opposed to the pastel flowered old lady curtains look some boats had in the 90s. :D

Awesome boat!

My buddy had a 90s regal velocity with a chester cheetah dude painted on the rear. How cool is that!? Everybody loves a classic speedboat.

Including gas stations! 30gph cruise!

Yeah, but just think how far that ride could take you in an hour. Kind of like comparing ultralights to a jet fighter.

There is always a price to pay for power and speed. If your worried about fuel consumption then this is not a boat for you. Is was built to cruse at 40 mph and handle some chop and it sure does that well. And yes it will burn some fuel but not as much as you may think unless you really use the HP. Just think of the fun a person can have with it.
