Hi All,

I got in touch with the owner of the boat listed below and he still has it!! Local Marina blue motor tech recommended the boat to me. I am going to take a look at it in April when he comes back from Florida and gets it opened up for the summer! Anything I should look for when looking at this boat? Also what do you think of the price? I am getting really excited to look at her. Primarily being on big Sebago lake in Maine will this handle chop on that lake with no problem?

Thanks


Just wanted to make comments on this brand. Lake boat --- small chop handler only. Also the brothers whom built these could not tell me one bit of info about a hull serial number boat of theirs inwhich was only a 2 year boat. This was back in 2007. I gave them the HIN and they could not, nor willing to give me any info about anything. Zero, they said do not even have a manu build sheets for anything. I thought that was very odd and told them so. I had an Essex boat in at the shop that had MANY issues for the engine side. Again this was a 2 year boat with 21 hours on it in my hands.

Hi All, I was hoping to get some insight from others with experience with the 2005 DCB 28 Extreme I will be looking at her some time in April when the owner returns from Florida. Some questions I had were.What to look for as far as issues with this boat
What are your experiences with chop ( I will be primarily on Sebago Lake in Maine and 2'-3' Chop is the norm on the bigger section of the lake)
Drivetrain Combo - Maintenance, Drivability, Reliability, Performance
Interior Layout - How much space is there, FunctionalityAny other suggestions would be helpful. This is my first Speed boat per say as I have a 22' Four Winn's Bow rider now.

Hi All,
Hope your all enjoying your boats this summer. I never ended up with a new one this season but still looking for next season now!
Any one with some knowledge on the newer interceptor? Coolkat26 or deck28!


Thanks
