It's for sale. New unit is located at Hyde Park III, it's a few hundred sq ft larger and located in a corner w/ much easier ability to enter and exit. The 60' depth should allow me to back entire truck and trailer inside.

Exact same, NO!
Similar Yes!

Several reasons...........
First and foremost would be opportunity. SportBoats Marine knew that there were a few things I wished I did differently and so when approached by an interested party seeking a 340 w/ Triple 350's not wanting to build new or the wait associated w/ new a brokered sale was born.

NT has introduced a few design changes for 2017 which I'll benefit from
I get to add / delete options and or change colors
I end up w/ a 2017 in 2016 as opposed to a 2015 mid 2015 and erase the 80hrs of use

The same goes for the Evo trailer, opportunity to do it differently.

I really enjoyed the transition from Perf Boating to the CC. I like the style and performance of the NT and there simply wasn't anything else I rather have at the time that I could afford and that was easily towable.
Once the 2015 sold I searched high and low, new & used like any boating enthusiast w/ $$$ sizzling in his pocket but at the end of the day I new I wanted to stay CC and O/B's!

I hope to make KW this year, then Bahamas & maybe Cuba next year in addition to Coastal Carolina boating.
That has been my intent all along once I decided to go CC. I made several typical PR Events in 2015 but I really want to explore beyond the typical circuit.

DOWNSIDE to this transaction is I'm boatless this summer awaiting a Sept delivery BUT I have friends w/ boats so not a total loss.

Good luck with your new 2017, My 2017 is in final paint at Mitcher T . here in Michigan cant wait to get her to Boyne Thunder in a few weeks. My hull went from hull 17, 2011 to hull 110. 2017.

Thanks Bill!

You definitely got good use out of your boat and I'm sure the 2017 will be spectacular.
I see nothing wrong w/ being a repeat customer!

Does your boat return to NT for final assembly or is it complete & Mitcher T paints it and returns directly to you?

Boat is done at Nor-tech they painted inside and we already sea trialed last month, Mitch is painting the sides, motors and part of the T-top and she will be done. It will be back in Ft Myers in the fall. It should be the most complex paint on a CC Nortech to date, at least I think. lol

Sounds COOL!
I prefer to keep my paint simple and clean for touch up and resale purposes.
I think this was a BIG+ in selling Black Tie Affair, white and black are pretty timeless.

Looking forward to seeing Bill63 / Mitcher T masterpiece!

Ah I didn't realize that was your boat Bill. Michael Knoblock posted some pics of it and the scheme on FB a month or so ago. I even took a few pics of features you had I'd never seen before while visiting Nor-Tech in early May.

I got no pics to post other than what posted last night. All the pics of the 2015 can be seen on previous pages.
