I've been on a 42 Tiger in 10's that I know mine would have gotten us wet.

A dealer told me the last 20 hrs of production is

Sure would love to work for their quality control department.

MERCURY FOUNTAIN IF YOU ARE READING THIS - not a joke I would work for food and water if I did your quality control.

Parents have a new Sea Ray - had finishing junk all in it as well.

I know this wouldn't be considered an improvement, but rather a step back. I personally prefer the older style rectangular dash as opposed to the newer (I think 05 and up) style dash.

some sort of dedicated foredeck access on non Lightning boats.........thats gotta be brutal stepping all over the seats and the dash every time you dock in a brand new boat.......Hey Reggie.......normal people dont have a support crew waiting every time you pull up to a dock........

uhmmm so what you guys are saying is that if you spend a few hundred thousand dollars on a new boat..you expect one with just a little attention to detail in assembly??
