Hello all! Just picked up a new 2008 H220 frenzy VP Gi/Dp. Hoping to get a few more warm days to splash it, before the season ends. Very cool forum, I will post some pics when I figure out how. This is my 1st Four Winns, traded in my Chris Craft. I went out today for a short run in crappy weather and it lived up to the hype. What a great boat!! Hope everyone has a great long weekend!

All the best!

Shawk,
What part of IA you in. I am just north of Dubuque, on the other side of the cheddar curtain.

Nice looking boat MB! You just have a couple of extra [IMG] tags in the first one so it's not showing.

Welcome to the forum!

Great looking boat! Make sure it's got the right anodes...

Thanks Mike, was there an issue with the anodes being incorrect?

Post subject:  Re: Newbie

FW generally delivers boats to their dealers with aluminum anodes, since they don't know what type of water the boat will be used in (aluminum is an all-around material - but not the best for any particular water type). If you'll be in mostly fresh water, you should make sure they've been changed to magnesium. If in salt, they should be zinc.

Dealers should be proactive enough to educate their buyers on this issue and participate in making sure the right anodes are installed at delivery time, but it seems very few of them do that. The wrong anodes can result in very expensive repairs involving a lot of down time.

10-4 Mike. Thanks for the heads up. I will be in fresh water only, so will check to see that I have the correct ones.

GREAT looking boat!! Love the graphics on the SS models... I'm going back and forth whether or not to add some kind of graphics to mine before next season. :? I like 'em clean but I like 'em with graphics too... :mrgreen:

Enjoy your H220!

Btw... is your prop an F5 DP? Mine came with an F6 and I'm making the change to an F4 or F5...
