Mr no luck, that's one of the most ridiculous statements I've ever read on Offshore Only. It's idiots like you that bring controversy to what is usually an informative fun site to visit. What kind of azzhole are you to say to the original poster that his paint job is worth more than his Checkmate. Just how much do you know about Checkmates, their history, quality and performance??? What kind of boat do you own...if you even own a boat. If you don't have anything positive to say, don't post. The guy that started this thread is obviously proud of his boat and the work he's put into it. He doesn't need a moron like you to come aboard and talk trash!!

Thanks....but i didnt let this idiot bother me. True...he must not be clear of these boats and their design purpose. As for mine, I have owned numerous boats and love the stance of this hull. Its a 2004 270 BR. True...many come "plain-jane" and dont offer some of the little stuff. I have decked this boat out with billet accessories and a lot of nice stuff.

Well said, Mr. Noluck keep your comments to yourself. The boat looks great and if he likes it thats all that counts.

I'll just assume this is a drunken post, no one could be this big of an @sshole sober. p:

Nice boat by the way, built right here in Bucyrus, Ohio!

lol, ignorance is bliss

why would you put billet accessories on a checkmate ?? your cupholders are worth more than your boat !!! LOL.

boat looks good. i had a 253 and loved it.

Looks great!! My first powerboat was a convincer 216.... I loved that hull, and never had any problems with the whole boat!!
I even looked at a 258 before I bought my velocity but the seller didn't have the foresight to make sure it ran when I looked at it, either way looks great!

Looks great!!!!

Ouch

For crying out loud... who would buy a &%@@ Checkmate in the first place???
