Someone owes Skip a check.








And WTF does a bell have to do with a performance boat? That's blowboat stuff.

Skippy has to be sending this guy a friendly legal letter...........It is degrading the brand name with the sailor's bell!

To comply with Navigation Rules and for distress signaling purposes all boats must carry a sound producing device (whistle, horn, siren, etc.) capable of a 4-second blast audible for ½ mile. *Boats larger than 39.4 ft. are also required to have a bell (see Navigation Rules.)

*Under a recent change, a vessel 12 meters (39.4 ft) to less than 20 meters (65 ft) is no longer required to carry a bell on board.

The Coast Guard said: "The bottom-line, a bell is no longer required on a vessel less than 20 meters in length. That of course means a bell is not required for those same vessels for successful completion of a VSC."

then your boat will not have "all the bells and whistles" (sorry! if I have to suffer with these thoughts , everyone else does too !):biggrinjester:
