    So I put down my deposit for the February spray date and finally ironed out all of the details in spec'ing this beast..
    Big thanks to the guys @ Rinker's Marine here in Houston, they have been awesome to work with!! Top not crew over there!
    I will post any info I get as well as pictures and that fun stuff here for those that care to follow along. If you have any questions feel free to ask!

    Continuing from the other thread, I'm running 20% ceramic. It looks awesome on the outside and visibility is great from inside. I'm normally on the bolster looking over the windshield but I can see perfectly with shades on when seated. I don't really boat at night so I could have gone 5% but if night boating is a regular thing for you go with 20%.

    The next level lighter is 35% but that's not really worth the LOE for the amount of reflectance/refraction you get.

    So I hit up the boat show today to see if they had any deals on any gear for the boat and that was a little bit of a let down but the show was great! Tons of beautiful boats! Rinker’s had their blue/black SE550 out there and it has the 20% ceramic tint on it and it was sick!!! I hopped in it and I was really surprised at the visibility from the inside considering how dark it looks from the outside but like you said it was awesome! I asked our sales person to have it done once the boat shows up!! It will be cool to see how it looks with all the black!

    Oh man, we probly passed each other a few times, I was there all day with my wife a brother and a pilot buddy who put a deposit down with will and Chris on a sea hunt 27’.
    It was a fun show, but I agree, the show was a little slow this year for toys. M2 got their own booth this year. I hung out with Bryce for a while, but I didn’t come across anything I really couldn’t live without. I was hoping to find a shore spike before I ordered one on amazon

    I am sure we passed each other a few times as we were all over that place yesterday. That is awesome about your buddy! Rinker's setup was really nice!!

    Yea I like that they just did one big booth this year. It was a good layout, I really liked the makai they had on the floor. But I’m a sucker for anything with ultra blue!

    Love that Raspberry Flake over Black!! It's gonna look sick once that sunlight hits the flake!

    You're gonna have to take me out sometime next year on that beast...I'll bring an extra 500lbs of lead

    Well done Sir

    Thanks!! Ya Rinker’s has a Craz that has the Raspberry metal flake and the Raspberry interior accent so I was able to see it on a boat before I spec’d it and even just under the lights on the showroom floor it looked awesome! I can’t wait to see it in the sun!

    Ya we can definitely find a day this summer and get out on the water! Extra lead is always welcome! Where do you typically run your boat?

    I grew up going to Somerville so I am familiar there but I hadn’t been to Lake Houston until the other weekend when I demoed the boat. It seems like a nice lake. Does it get busy?
