I highly recommend stripping all the caution stickers off the boat before they get baked on. Especially the vaginal trauma sticker on the swim deck! You don't need the stickers and it makes the boat look a little more classy.

I would also replace the bow roller with a stoltz before you mark up the bow with the cheap factory one. I am assuming the still use the cheap gray roller, but maybe the new models have a better one. If it is not a stoltz I would chuck it.

X3 ...... Good one, @BigN8 !
 
Ever the superb salesman. Love the scientific method of a 21 footer put up against a 24 footer. Fins. Who needs 'em? These boats are so easy to handle, stock. I just don't get it, nor will I ever fall for the hype. Better loading at the dock? You have got to be kidding me.
 
I would second the recommendation of a new bow roller on the trailer ASAP. The stock one is hard junk and will scratch up your boat. Just switch it out before your first load/unload. The correct Stoltz one is super cheap and dead simple to install.
