Nice colors! hope you mean a '14 March delivery...so you decided to stay on the 450 instead of going to the 550...

Nice looking boat.

Im assuming March 2014 is when you want it and not the the quickest they could get it to you?

[swankster]

Yep my bad, 2014. Yes, I have the 450 now and tested the 2014 with the 450. For what I do and where I live, it works great. There are only two reasons I would get the 550; one, if I thought I was going to get relocated to a higher altitude and two, for resale. I spend about $3,000 in gas a year and guess that the premium would only cost me 10 to 15% more, which is not much in the grand scheme. I budget $12,000 a year all in costs for a boat including depreciation and this time I chose some extra options on the boat and left off the extra 100hp. I know it would be easier to add the options at a later date than the extra 100hp but I never seem to be able to put the trigger on them. (sound system and lights) In the after market world, it would put me above the budget. If it is in the swap, I don't really know what I paying for each but I know I'm in the budget. I just don't think the extra capital for the 550 is worth it for me.

What do you think of the color scheme? I like the black hull that I have now but believe that it is harder to take care of than the silver cloud, so I'm going back. What do you think of the silver cloud tower?

Looks Good! Congrats

As far as colors, I am more conservative... Not looking for a full pallet of colors splashed here and there... Reccomend you simplify the color layout...more grouped together instead of 4 colors evenly splashed all over.

you know your Bimini is black.... And trailer black, black rims?... Introduction of the graphics and "black" chromax lettering brings in grays....

^^^ conservative thought process.

[Laketexoma]

Nice. Mine is suppose to be here the same time. Probably be on the same truck. If mine would sell quicker I might get it for Christmas.

[tommy1005]

I dig it.....about the only thing I'd change is to the black chromax letters to get the black vents as well. Is that gunmetal or black metallic?

[nyryan2001]

^^^ Black chromax letters dont get you black vents

Really? They do on the 2014 230, figured the G would be the same.

They do. Chromax and vents will be in corresponding colors.

[nyryan2001]

I havent seen a G with OEM black vents yet.... I'd like them on mine!

[Laketexoma]
