I found the original sales lit. and pricing for my boat. Base price was $292,750 back then, when I had the survey done last year replacement cost was $585,000, thought that was interesting.

In the review they talk about the air-assisted pocket doors, kinda cool, I will have those doors working again by next season!

Enjoy !!!

Looking at the layout it looks like you have a second stateroom with bunk beds? That woudul be really useful for me.

How does it ride? What is your cruising speed?

The side cabin is key, but right now is really only used for storage and for my large toolbox.

I might be living aboard starting in the spring so some re-arranging is definitely needed.

I cruise @2000rpm's @ about 20 mph NOT knots....

I have had over 20 people on the boat at once, still not a problem gets right up on plane.

The ride is awesome, can't beat the 16ft beam.

Boat should really have about 600 hp per side, but the 450's are ok....

It really is an awesome boat. I really like the hardtop. That may be my next boat but there aren't that many around
