Both boats are headed to the Ivory Coast / Abidjan. There's 15 or so 19' and 21' Daytonas with OB power running there.
These will be for first with I/O power and the newer hull...we expect there will be more...:thumbup:

Still putting it together in Fabrication...started the colorsand process yesterday...pix to follow...
Buyers are puchasing extra motors and other parts, several o/b's for replacement on existing boats, etc.

There's a 56% IMPORT DUTY assessed on the buyers when they purchase boats, planes, etc. :yikes

I love the gel scheme and colors on this boat. I wish you guys would make a 22 with a speedster style window. I think it would look great. Maybe I'm just no a fan of the canopies. I guess I will just have to order one in order to have you guys make it.:eek

Bring you checkbook out for a visit...:p Actually there has been some serious discussions on the whole windscreen dealio...just takes $$$ to tool a new deck...

Meanwhile... the boat has moved to rigging with the flowcoat engine bay and final polish completed...:thumbsup

I mentioned the same thing to Bob(owner) while I was there awhile back looking at the 22 that was in the showroom.! A speedster deck/windshield on the 22 would be perfect [emoji106]

Any updated pictures of this one? Would love to see what interior was used. I also wish that there was a different option other than the canopies... Mr. DB doesn't like them:thumbsdown

Perfect size boat. I think a reworked dash and speedster wind screen would be killer!!!

Agreed. It is not cheap to re tool the deck though.

All we need is a few deposits and a new deck can happen ... :p

The "blue" 22 is done and the "orange" one should be wet in a week or so ... shipping crates are here :thumbup:

After you ship them over, do you have a rep meet with the buyer and do a final walk through / test? Or do they fly out to the states for all that before they ship?

When they get crated, on the trailer, they are ready for the water. :thumbup:
