275 Checkmate photos - Like the ZT 350, this boat will be offered with either a full framed windshield or a low profile windscreen. These photos are not of the final product.

in that other photo post it looks like something big and white in the backround? any info on that?

My vote would be to do away with the windshield or make it an option. The 275 looks way better with the fairing.

Finished ZT 275 - Ran 68+ MPH (w/ HO)

More photos of new model....

I like how they brought some color above the rubrail. I suggested that many times only to be shot down.

The next question to ponder............will Hawkeye become "the worlds largest Checkmate dealer"?

I like the colors and as noted the extra little color above the rubrail is nice. It would look way better with the windscreen.

What Baja mold was used to make that boat its looks like the 272 to me.

It was called the 275 which replaced the 272. The 278 was the most recent.

i dont like the way they only changed the colors.
they should have done the nice pop up bow light inplace of those cheep crap ones (my dads has them and they have broken 2 times already!!)

and the cheep plastic white horn in the bow looks like hell, there old school stainles one looked classy.

from what i can tell atleast they got rid of the cheep threw hull for the bilge and put a stainless one on.

i like the boat, but a couple checkmate upgrades would be nice besides the colors.

i hope they do a 30-33 baja/checkmate but make 50% baja and 50% checkmate and i think they will have a perfect boat!! instead of 97% baja and 3% checkmate.
