Darth, we had a Charger dealer in Murfreesboro, TN several years ago--they did not last but a couple years but may have been related to owners health more than the Charger boats they carried:confused::confused:...i spent several hours in their shop during those 2 years drooling over those rigs. I cannot believe there are not more of those boats out there. Always considered them to be 1 of the finest built- right up there with Champion during the '80's & '90's. Don't know how many boats they build in a year but would be nice to hear from some owners. If i remember "A Touch of Class"
is on the rear starboard corner of the boats & classy they are!!:first:

I just purchased a 1997 charger, just wanted to say hi. My question is with transducer placement and "the step", i had a 788 hummingbird installed and they put it on the "top step" i havent been able to run it at high speeds due to the lakes being down and no wake zones, but I am concerned that it may get "kicked" at high speeds, no way of knowing till then but just wanted to ask if anyone else had some knowledge of the subject.

Im sure there are plenty of charger owners, just too busy fishing I guess, seems I have more time online than on the lake

The test was nogo, sloppy installation by BPS, worked up to 18 knots, weak! demanding money back, some at least. spent a few hours reading the installation and doing it myself, no way they read a word! think I got it in a good location now, but isnt that what I paid them to do? will update when I get another day on the lake, whenever that is......

I moved the tranducer myself, works great up to max speed, had to do a lot of calculations for deck angle etc, but it was well worth it, now I have to try to get some money back from the "professional installation", asses.
