If you are bare foot and dry you won't slip on walk around. If deck is wet like in the mornings, can be slick.

Nice ride Memphis....congrats

That's a great looking boat. I guess I"m just old school. I prefer the interior and the lines of the EX vs the new Lightnings.

From what I gathered you can't get the Ex with anything more that Bravos.

Re: Lightning vs. Ex.

I vote for X, Having had a couple of 42's I'm a little biased, but I think the dash is a little to large on the new cockpit, but I do like the sliding door.However, I don't think you will ever get back even half the difference ($75K) on resale. Congrats either way.
