I was told it sold for 210k, great deal

Absolutely. I just closed the deal on Friday for catastrophe. I am so fired up!! It is getting a few touch ups done at the factory and then coming my way in a week or two.

I just want to say thank you to Peter Roberts at Double R. He is a stand up guy and I would advise anyone who is looking for a performance boat to talk to him. He is very knowledgable and a straight shooter. He is also just a good all around guy. I definately have had a great experience this far in the game.

I will definately post some pics as soon as I take delivery. Thanks again all who have helped me in this decision. You are greatly appreciated.

Peter is a great guy for sure.
Pm me your email and ill send you pics of the build.

Congrats

Wow, thanks!! Pm is sent.

Congrats and please let me know when you bring it down to Lake Conroe

I sure will. It will spend most of its time Galveston, but I will definately let you know and we can hook up

Congrats Dayton! Can't wait to see your pics. I love the 36 but you can't go wrong with the 43. Bigger is better right? :-)

Congrats... Beautiful boat good luck with her....

Thats what I have always heard. Just sometimes that wasnt in my favor?:angry-smiley-038:

Congrats

Are you a never before cat owner?

Who did you insure through?

I am a new cat owner and used wake zone. $11,500 first year premium (ouch!) and have to take Tres Martin (which I want to do any way). I was told to expect it to be $7k next year.

Yes that's who I went through as well. Mine is 10k, but its not a skater. I also have to take the course as well but I don't have any lay up time. Ya, insurance is a complete joke for these boats. I hope mine will go down quite a bit next year as well.

Hey Dayton, How is your new Christmas Present doing? Did you take her out for a run yet?

Man...it isn't here yet. I had the factory do some touch up and it should be here by Friday. I can't wait!

Awesome.

Just in time for the weekend.

You need to call Sy Goldberg at Total Dollar... The rate on my cat is WAY less then your rates.... HALF!!!

Thanks mike, but I did call him and they were not interested in first time cat owner with a boat of this speed for some reason. Maybe you got in the cat game at the right time.

Saw your new rig at the factory a few days ago, looks great! You should come out and do the FMO fun run with us on Jan 1,

Sounds like a blast, but my boat just arrived in Galveston ,Texas! Sux the temps have dropped to 30-40's :(

I went boating!
 

Here are a few pics of last weekend. I absolutely love this CAT!!

Dang...I think you just stole the words right out of my mouth!

upgrading already?

Well I would like to say yes, but my wife has talked me into a cruiser type boat (sundancer or something similiar) around 44-50 ft so we can have more "family time" instead of "daddy time". I am looking to trade or sell this boat so I can buy a more "family friendly" boat. All sarcasm aside, i will get back into a cat when my boys get a little older and can enjoy the boat more. Its more of a me and my friends type of boat right now and I understand her complaint. So anyhow, thats the game plan for now. I really love the Nortech...its a blast!

Sorry to hear that. Sounds like my story. I just run the Skater first thing in the morning then put it away. We bought a small Sea Ray with Axius that she can drive and now everyone is happy!

Now the "how hard to sell it" test begins. Good luck, hope it sells fast for you.

Agreed, we will see. I am flexible so hopefully that will make a difference but only time will tell. I don't mind having the boat to use when the weather warms up:)

Good idea. If my wife ever suggests we sell the Skater I will list it for $599,000. If she wants to sell the cruiser......$59,000.

Dayton can you clear your PMs
