Man, that red is gorgeous next to my blue. Do you not have the flip up swim deck lounge seats @Ron and Renee ? I thought those came on all the late 210SE's.

Thanks, yes it does. Get this, just got off the phone with Riva racing and for 1100 a piece I can turn the 215s into 260s. It's gonna be sick as boat!

the boat in this pic doesn't look like a SE. A SE should have pop up cleats. the rear seats don't look quite right? Looks like a single engine S model If you haven't laid eyes on this boat yet i would proceed with caution. Hopefully I'm completely wrong just doesn't look right from this pic. If it is really an SE/430 your getting a hell of a deal at 25K

You can see the rear seats and cleats on mine -

The flat cushions lift up and then you can pull the lower portion out from underneath them making very comfortable rear lounge seats. Only the 210SE's got these.

Just FYI
3 easy ways to tell a 210 SE stainless steel rub rail, cup holders and pop up cleats
Half the boats listed on boat trader are listed as SE's and there not.

thats sucks.

But if thats the boat your set on. I would look for a 2012 210SP if you like orange or any 2012. As with a 2012 you know 100% you'll be getting the metal washers in the supercharger and not the ceramic which have a high failure rate if not replaced in time.

Yeah I'm set on that boat. How do you like yours? I'm still going to change the superchargers at 100 hrs to Riva x chargers. They also have a 200 hr rebuild window. So you can get 4 seasons no problem.

Great boat. Loved it. But with that said just sold it to @veedubtek. Wanted something a little bit more ocean worthy.

How fast is yours

Huh I was expecting well over 60 closer to 70. I've seen some video of stock boats doing 70

@Ron and Renee , please point me to that video. On green hulk there is a guy that got 73 out of his after investing THOUSANDS of dollars. A vanilla will not break 60. If it does then I may be boat shopping again.
