Poker Runs are about flash, so let's forget about the $$$$...if you just want hi performance, flash and great handling put yourself into a new Vector 40...you can rest assured you won't see another one and afterall isn't individuality what it's all about?

Sexy styling, love the graphix, makes the boat look longer than it is. A fast, great-handling hull. Too bad Donzi never built a wraparound windshield though.

How is it getting behind the wheel? Powerboat mag said it's very tight, but I think their problem was Teague's fat belly.

This ZRC is probably the nicest looking one I have seen.

The new Vector 40 is different, I'll admitt . But, it is one odd looking boat bordering on ugly and probably would be one very tough boat to resell. And, I think that the individual who started this thread is looking to conserve $$ and is looking for used or something priced reasonably.
