This is our boat Suzie II named after my wife Susan (Suzie
1). It is a Regal 2350 SLC cuddy.
They still make them the same, but now it's called a
2450. Cuddy means that it has a small cabin at the front. They
also make the same boat as a
bow rider, that's where there are seats at the front. We purchased it
new from Full Tilt marine in
Woodbridge Virginia in April of 2001. At that time we did not have the
house at Chester River, but we had the motor home that we could use to tow the
boat to the marina. Now that we have a house with a pier, the boat sits on
a lift attached to the pier. We can just walk down the pier, press a
button, and the boat is lowered into the water and is ready to go in no time.
Much easier than messing around at the boat ramp! The boat has to go on a
lift here because there is a tide of about two to three feet and the water can
get very rough when there is a storm and the boat would get smashed up if it
were just tied to the pier. It has a big 5.7 liter V8 engine that produces
300 horse power and it can go as fast as 55 miles per hour which is quite fast
for a boat this size. It's small enough to have fun speeding around, but
large enough to be safe in the main bay during a storm. Well it looks like
I have lot's of pictures taken from the boat, but not many good ones of the boat
itself, see what you think. I guess I'll have to take some more!
