I don't care if people want Center consoles but I agree the new ones do all look alike. I could spot a Center console from the 90's and 2000's and tell them apart but man they blend together now outside of a few brands like contender.

CaseyH,
Me, neither. Hell, I don't want FIVE people on my boat with me. And wouldn't if I had room. One of the big appeals for us is the "getaway" aspect. I don't mind sharing a cove with a few hundred people, but I can leave them behind whenever I want to.
Thanks. Brad.

Nice looking boat. I personally am not a fan of center consoles. You cannot get out of the wind. Blowing from the sides and front. This Statement looks like it has good wind protection.

I just find it amusing that most of the guys on here who now own center consoles or outboard cats, are the same guys, who 10-15 years ago were the ones saying “I wouldn’t be caught dead in an OB cat or center console with egg beaters!”
The high performance boating world has to be about the worst I’ve seen when it comes to everybody wanting to follow whatever the perceived cool guys own and as soon as a couple of them had OB cats and center consoles, well hell, now everybody had to have one.

I struggle with the thought of eventually owning a center console some day. But I presume it’ll happen eventually. Big bath tubs lol. I do like the Axopars! Kindve a CC SUV if you will.
with all that said, I really dig the lines on this statement. It’s as sexy as a CC can get. Kinda looks fast just sitting there.
I like the fact statements offshore roots aren’t lost on the design. the paint accentuates the smooth lines of the boat that taper to the rear like a traditional offshore hull. The black T-Top also helps make the hull pop and the angled hardtop tipped down like the brim of a gentleman’s bowler hat from the 1800’s giving off an aggressive stance as if ready to fight!
I like it. Nicely executed.
