This is a really fine example of what can be done with a refit.

While I love the engine upgrade and other appointments there are a few details that I would not have chosen to change, like the modification of the sliding glass door, the port lites, the loss of the top port side bunk, and especially the relocation of the batteries.

The cockpit arrangement is ideal for fishing, but for me, I actually prefer the factory layout with the reverse L bench seat and the wet bar with the built in fridge/ice maker.

With the transom bench seat being removable we can pop that out, allowing for fishing space, pop in the livewell with it's quick disconnects and throw on the factory fighting chairs for a real fishing event.

That said, you would have to look very hard for a better fishing cruiser.

i was able to finally watch the video. okay, okay, i admit. NOW i really do have 'meter envy' i really like that boat.
i have a question for you 'international' owners. i've seen the 'built in toilet' on many of these vessels. what happens when they crap out (no pun intended). how can they be replaced? is it a module that just drops in?

Aaron my son, my son,

You have wisdom beyond your years boichick !

Yes, it just "drops" in.

Sometimes you have to squeeze it out, but at times it can also be very loose.

If it's hot, you can work up a sweat dropping it in.

Then sometimes it makes a splash too.

But truth is it is a porcelain bowl and there are access hatches on the sides for repairs, etc.

you really made me laugh out loud this afternoon when i read this post from you. my salon windows were open and i'm pretty sure atleast two people on the dock thought i was insane. seriously, how does the commode fit in the molded area? does it just drop in and is it just the bowl?
