Sorry to hear it is taking so long. In the end, I am sure it will be worth the wait! From the pics I have seen recently, you haven't skipped a beat at boating! Hang in there ZP!

Yep there's a definite instant gratification piece to buying used but when the build is over and your the only person to have ripped the new boat across the bay hopefully the wait will have been worth it or at least a memory that you can get past. I agree though the boat building / maintenance industry seems to have no understanding or even concept of deadlines and it's super frustrating for those of us that are used to having to meet them or deal with penalties, in the marine industry the penalty for being late is generally they get to add on additional costs and make more money...

ZP, I can relate to your ZP! Mine took 3.5 months to get painted. Was supposed to be done in December before the Miami boat show, but got put on the back burner for the "big boys" to be shown at the show. Really frustrating, but in the end, I was very pleased with what I received. I am also in the construction industry. My clients often wait until the the hour glass is near empty on the schedule to get started on their project and expect that we can move mountains to get them into their building when they originally contemplated the project completion with no regard to their lack of action. Having been part of the boat build is very rewarding, however.

The interior is done, it’s a beautiful job. Exceeds my expectations. Boat is home. Now sea deck, graffics, and props.

Wow!

Looks great Jim! :Score-101010: It was worth the wait...... :)

Looks great, congrats to one step closer. Nice thing is at this point you can throw some props on (I'm sure there's a set laying around somewhere) and start enjoying it while you wait for the rest of the items to get finished up.

Beautiful! Can't wait to see it in person!

absolutely marvelous

Awesome boat and extremely well thought out...Enjoy!

118 right off the trailer.. how much more do you think it has or is the rigging set-up just about perfect (as in not much improvement without sacrificing something for extra mph)?

needs running shots!

are you running the Merc Cleavers?

I really like what you did for the transom swim access. Looks great!! Beautiful ride!!!

Boat looks fantastic! I really like the seadeck across the rear hatch. Our 308 is a pain to enter from the swimstep, we typically use rubber backed rugs.

Boat came out great....

Congrats on new build. Hope you have many hours of safe and Happy boating.

Awesome boat Jim !!!!! congrats:Score-101010:

well broken in by now I would imagine LOL.. looks awesome!! let us know how the cnc props compare to the others you ran.

Yellow boat in back an Argo?

Give us a comparison of the side by side run 300X's and the 400R's...

ktron, what is the status with your 36?

Great numbers. What size were the Dewalds. What size Merc cleavers are you having shipped in.

Almost done.

Your graphics turned out perfect, congrats. Crazy how much bigger our 308s are compared to 28s especially when it starts to get spotty. Hope you have a ton of trouble free hours on the water.

Great Job Brother! Boat is awesome and looking forward to running more together in the future!
