    So I put down my deposit for the February spray date and finally ironed out all of the details in spec'ing this beast..

    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.

    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?

    Lake Houston from Duessen Park or Somerville Lake from Rocky Creek or Yegua Park.

    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?

    It depends on the weekend, most of the time it's not too bad and if you get out on the water in the morning, you can usually get several sets on glass. It's nice and deep in the cove by the dam across from Duessen.

    Gonna be a beautiful boat, Congrats! Here's some great pics from Southtown Watersports of a similar Makai. Doesn't have your red accents on the interior (which looks awesome) but everything else is pretty close.

    Good to know. The day we demoed the boat was after all the rain so the water was muddied and it was blowing 12 mph so no one was out there lol.

    Thanks my family and I are really excited about it!! That boat looks soo good! I can’t wait to see how the Raspberry interior accents are going to look. I think it is all going to come together really well!
