Thx for the correction

Well yes I can share. Lets put it this way. Nick is a great guy at statement. Hands down. Craig is a liar and snake. That being said Nick also can't say no to anything which in turn gets him into binds with projects and due dates. The punch list includes items that were changed from build process to lots of quality issues. The fiberglass had a few voids in the hull to the point I could stick the tip of my pinky finger in it. This is definitely not good. A handful of stress cracks in corners of compartments and doors.

The cuddy was not put together with the options and choices we agreed upon. Panels of interior of cuddy was fallen apart and down after my trip to key west in the first 10 hours. Compartments that opened did not fit well. Some rubbed and were bowed to were they didn't fit well. All the bilge pumps ran and burned up because all of the debris in the hull was never swept out which clogged the pumps up. Wow, this was fun to mess with all week long during key west trip. NOT. SeaDek sucks. IMO... The lines on mine didn't line up with compartments. But, it also stained up pretty bad after a few months. The material is soft and is easy to tear up. The areas exposed to sun faded pretty bad verses the areas that were NOT exposed. Stereo changes and brand was not installed per specs. Totally overlooked and already cut into the boat. Several other options not completed to contract. This pretty much sums it up. After several months of back and forth with an attorney things got resolved and the boat was sold to someone that was happy with it. Oh, I forgot my trip was delayed by a day because one of the Mercury Motors blew up. Mercury had a recall on like 14 motors and guess what 3 were on my boat painted to match. Nick scramble to get new ones from another sold boat they were not painted and swap them out. It was a true nightmare.

I wanted to keep this from public forum. But, everything is settled finally. The boat sold and most of the quality issues were addressed before new buyer took it.

I love my Statement...no issues at all. Hope you bring that 29 up to Boyne this year!

I have been on a lot of Statements and never seen those issues but they do happen, especially when something is custom ordered. It is a **** situation and one no one wants to go through. Glad it got resolved and even happier he ended up with that BEAUTIFUL DCB.

Clearly you underestimate my abilities!!
Rear facing lounger is nice but no cabin.
Personally I think a Nor-Tech 390 is allot more boat, w/ bolster seating for 5 + a wider helm offering better wind protection & more.
As always to each our own.

You can order bolster for 5 in a 38 Statement. Again, these are customer to order be it Statement, Nor-Tech, or who ever.

recent deliver...Cabin, bolster for 5, with rear seating for 4 along the back.

For the $$$ I think the Mystic is going to be the best value in that size range but agree transportation becomes quite an ordeal.

Red wine was spilled on mine but easily cleaned w/ some soft scrub.
Absolutely can be applied to non skid.
I think some of the busier patterns turn prospective buyers off but there are many other options for this product.

Looking Good & +1 on the NT experience

Nor-Tech all the way ... My second 39 CC goes in the mold next week. Oh yes... going with the teak flooring...
