@adrianp89 yes that was hot. Those boats are going to be definitely out of my price range. Hoping for something more palatable on the AR 250

I’ve been told the AR has those seats but just 360hp.

Those stickers are coming OFF day 1. I’d love that tower and Bimini on the AR but I’m not counting on it.

Watched the 255XD video before they took it down.....the freeboard looks taller than the 242???

I’m glad the styling didn’t mimic the 275.....sorry I can’t stand the 275 styling.....

And now we just need to wait on the prices......ugh

Interested to see the dry weight of the XD. Top speed looked a bit lean with 500 hp. Just sayin I can no longer access the video's on the net.

This was my original post and now I'm having a lot of difficult even posting on
Curious if the AR250 will have the same features. The sliding rear seat was awesome.
I hope it does. The AR is what we have our deposit down on.

I had recorded it on my phone to show the hubby right before they went down but we're actually interested in the AR250 so hoping it has similar features.

Did they give you pricing on the 2021 AR or is your deposit just putting you in line?

That will probably be the boat we order next spring (either that or the Scarab255G which is $57K but I’ve heard Scarab dealers are usually more willing to deal). Wife gave me a hard cap at $60k but hoping she will budge a little once seeing them at the boat show......trying to convince her for us to buy our 20 year+ boat and just get exactly what we want and keep it forever/last purchase first.......

Shame the videos went down but thank you for that little sneak peak :) I managed to record it before they went private. Looking forward to the reveal on the AR tomorrow. Our dealership feels like the price will be comparable to the 2020s so fingers crossed. Anyone who hasn't already put a deposit down, I suggest you do. Going to be a wait on these babies after tomorrow.
