We officially took posession of our 328 Friday afternoon. Practiced some docking since this is my first time with twins, I really like using the sticks to maneuver inside the marina. Spent a couple of nights on it, filled up and made for Green Bay. Waves were 2 to 3 ft, but you would'nt really know it with the boat. Handled great! We can't be more excited, in the days to come I may become quite annoying with questions. Hope everyone is having a great Memorial Day weekend!

Learning the twins is definitely an art.... From launch in january till now we've topped 50 hours on the 318.... My twin-stick skills are getting alot better.
You just learn to take it slow.


I used to find myself using the wheel and the twins - man that's tough to remember where you are at all times. Now, I'm pretty good and just the sticks unless I need to whip the back end around real quick.

We were out yesterday and I was right next to a 328 like yours. They are a great boat!!!!
