Nice looking ride. Reminiscent of a Whaler (that's a compliment).

A new boat without a stepped hull?

Exactly, why was this left out ???? As a former formula owner they are no doubt excellent quality built boats, however they missed the mark IMO design wise. Why the Fastech hull was not used with a 10'6 beam is poor design & marketing in addition to being 3 year behind in production as the CC market took off. This appears to be the same hull has the CBR with a 12' beam. Another Scout or Boston Whaler looking boat among other builders just to name a couple. A sleek looking Fastech hull would have been better competition with the likes of NorTech, Cig (etc).

No obvious steps in SOTW article pics is what I was looking at.

what up bubba? How’s married life man?!

And yeah, Gotcha. I think the article pics were cad drawing pics. There’s actually a live one at the Miami boat show. Steps stick out unlike the cad pics.

had not seen the pics with the steps, I stand corrected. These new pics further my opinion of the appearance, its not bad but not a fan of the rigid stearn. Perhaps the real deal in the water will change my thoughts. Can we have a link to those renderings if available. Thanks
