"I was in Xtreme Marine's showroom at Lake Lewisville (Dallas)yesterday and they just received their new 27 ZR, Red and White. Its a BEAUTY!" Thanks, that's my new baby! Actually bought it in February but let Mike keep it in the showroom 'til I needed it. Took it to PK last weekend for the first real trip. Great boat! Also, Frank is dead on re: speed. Mike & I saw 72 out of the box in some chop. She's running against the rev limiter w/the 26p prop so that's the first project. I really think with some exhaust & the right prop you could see 75-76. Not 80-82 but, a heck of lot cheaper then $ 30k too. Either way, you will love the boat! PS: Here's a quick pic: |
Ok, so aside of the 496 vs. 525 question, have you asked yourself this... How long to you plan on keeping it for? Are you going to get 3'-itis, 6'-itis or more... or will you just be good with 27' and want to keep it for 5-10 years? I would think the 496 w/ the ext. warranty is the way to go if you plan to get rid of it in the next few years, less money out now - better resale down the road.
Either way - nice choice, great looking and running boat no matter which motor you go with. :cool: |
