Thanks guys. I bought the boat from a friend I think he may have some old pictures. It was maroon, off white, and black with bottom paint(yuk). The interior was the same colors.
It also had the glass windshield and SS rails around the boat that I removed and filled in. I also removed the swim platforms. I was not sure if I would like the boat over my 240 Baja but what a difference! I now have a custom 240 Baja for sale!

Russ,

I saw your boat out on the river today...looks sharp. Wouldn't have known it was a Checkmate if I didn't see this thread. I thought it was a redone Baja Sport 240 or Outlaw. Well done!

I wasn't on a boat. I saw it from the shoreline.
