Default Lightning Custom Boats?

Any opinions? I'm looking at a 2005 29xs with low hours but haven't seen many of these. Anyone have experience with this boat builder?
Thanks

Looks like these guys are in Lake View Terrace, CA according to their website. The build 50-100 boats/year and have been in bus. since 1998. Ring any bells?

Dont know how accurate this info is but a few years back Ultra Custom Boats (CA) had a sub division line called Lightening.....the division was sold off to a CA builder who was building them separate from Ultra for a few years....try calling Ultra for some info if its the same company I am talking about.
