That’s the exact boat we ordered from Johnson Marine in Ontario last winter. We were supposed to take delivery before Desert Storm and when it still wasn’t there in late May we pulled out of the deal. They got it in mid summer and it’s been on their lot since. Boat has every option and the trailer is a very nice triple axle Extreme with 18” wheels. Someone could probably get a great deal on it...the price we were going to pay couldn’t be beat.

Wow. Beautiful.
I can honestly say I am surprised, but also impressed, DCB put prices as equipped on their signs. 1.3 Million for the M44 seems reasonable. A few more weekends of O/T and I will be able to afford a bumper for it.

Matching engine cowlings is a nice finishing touch on this Eliminator Speedster.

RD said it would be ok if I posted his pic of him working. Just for the record, this was not at 8am.

I guess it’s just me. But some of those gel designs are just ugly. And the wild sea deck patterns are hideous. If I’m paying that much for boat then the stiching designs better line up and be centered in the seats. My 25 year old Cole interior all lines up Guess I’m just anal about shit

I hate to say this but the Barron deck boat does not have very appealing lines to it ,to me it looks like something from 1979 .Very awkward ,to bad I was really looking forward to it. Personally I don't think any deck boat has better lines to it than a Conquest top cat 2 and a Howard is running it a close second.

It almost looks like my old Warlock 25SXT did. Very similar lines.

I agree..... The Barron lines just don't appeal to me! Maybe they do for others, but it looks dated in my opinion. Hopefully the performance makes it attractive!

For those of us that have never been, do they keep the roll bar boats separated from the rest?....:)

Agree but the inverse. Howard on top. Can't deny the flex of the front sponsons and the sexy stretched swim step. Just my 2 cents

Nobody buys dingies anymore... :D

I don't know about the windshields on the 'toons, but I like the layout. I'd ditch the carpet though, that stuff gets nasty our here with all the grasses and mud you drag on the boat.

With a few comments about the Barron I thought I would add a few more pics.

Don’t let rain scare you away. The show is inside 4 different buildings with all of the performance builders in one place. However walking to the ticket booth might not be as fun. They do have trams running the parking lots :) As mentioned previously they kinda have it set up where you have to walk thru one to get to the next. The food vendors are in the outside areas but the bars are inside.
