[QUOTE=Bullhead;4395953]
I have heard this from a lot of people, but I rarely am ever in the cabin. My kids will sit down there to get out of the sun or something, but I might have been in my Baja's a handful of times. Thanks!

This is spot on....I had an 07 38ZR and at 5'10 I could sit up in the cabin....my buddy at 6'4 had to keep his head slightly cocked over when sitting on the couch.....other than that it is a great boat.....rides well, turns well (flat with almost no lean) and is pretty fast (I could run 92 with six blade herrings)....handles side wake like a champ which makes for a good poker run boat.....the thing that would concern me the most about this particular boat is that is it 9 years old with only 150 hours.....most would see that as a positive but I have found that boats that sit up that long with little to no use tend to have nuisance issues

38ZR, ZX and other stuff
I have a 38 ZR. Great boats. They were built off the racing hull. They won 9 titles with that hull. The cabin is not meant for hanging out inside. If you want to take a nap, its great for that. This boat was built for one thing..... speed. They are rock solid at speed. I would suggest if you buy this boat or some other zr, to go to Tres Martins high performance boat school.
Many people get the ZX model mixed up with the ZR models. The ZX has a very nice tall cabin and is meant for hanging out down below.
The boat that went over the wave and launched on the west coast was a black 43 ZR.
Tom A is correct on all counts!
The boat you are looking at has a classic timeless paint scheme, not too loud, if you will.
I have the 700's but the 525 are solid motors and you should be able to find a good wrench for them wherever you take it and plenty of parts. good luck with your purchase.
