From the press pictures, I was concerned that the new tower with its solid design could make the rear seating feel enclosed. How's visibility from the rear seats?

Any pictures of the new hull from the front (no angle)? Should be interesting to compare the deadrise/flats/chine with previous year.

When are you getting it on the water?

Does anyone have any requests on what they would like to see?

Ummmm........Your boat in my garage??

 

[OperationROL]

Very, very nice. @OperationROL's Wife and I are in awe.

 

[OperationROL]

Are there wiring holes for tower speakers up top?

 

[Williamsone46]

@OperationROL You can run tower speaker through the tower mount without and modification.

I was meaning up top where the speakers would mount.

Negative you would have to drill them. I wouldn't want there to be any pre drilled holes, that way your able to mount them anywhere you want.

@Pointblank I'm heading out this weekend.

Wow....geez...thank you for the shot of the keel! I sure hope it is "stout as hell"....I cant imagine them designing it any other way...

Adam,
I am interested in seeing how it tracks at slow speeds, no hands on the wheel demo would be nice. I want to see how slow you can go without constant steering correction.

 

[Williamsone46]

@Nucem140 I'll take some video this weekend and than you can try it out when you make it out this way.

 

[Nucem140]

I plan on making the trip whenever you are available. Just let me know what works best for you.

Thanks Again!

Take a look at the video @Ziess21 made and just posted on another thread. Looks to be a very big improvement,

My 2015 242 LS in my driveway! ...oh...wait...that should be tomorrow!
and we ended up with Black....your safe for now ;-)

I think that keel is begging for a Keelguard, no? I wonder if it would affect it too much. But it sure seems susceptible down there. And beautiful...

I'm excited to see some pictures. Your going to need some hot sauce for that black boat.

It looks sturdy. I don't beach my boat at all so no keel guard for me.
