Dave,

Sorta curious why you rated the Force 370 so low? I'm looking at possibly purchasing one and it's been well taken care of I sorta compare it to a Black Thunder when it comes to cuddy room and amenities. I've been fast and more looking for ride and amenities over going fast anymore. Was going to call you, but been so busy.

Great riding hull, but the swim platform was designed too low IMO. Tall smoked plexigass windshield can be hard to see through at times. Maybe cut it down and make it custom? Cockpit and cabin areas are both nice.

Call me.

Dave thanks for taking the time to talk to me about my questions. I'll be in touch if I decide to move forward.

I just noticed my list did not include the 184 SS, or the 220 Sport and I own one of each.

Curious about the 405s.... I think they're a beautiful boat. What liner issue, or other issues, did they have?
