Not sure just yet. Probably within a couple weeks. I'll squeeze her into the garage and start to install the PNP ballast and stereo, just two Rev10's. And a sub.

Dark I LIKE IT!

Great Colors (but that's my taste).

I'm glad you finally closed on something to get this drama behind you and looks like you ended up with pretty darn close to what you wanted and now you can put your own touch on it with some upgrades.

Looking forward to some more pics......

Awesome love the clean colors. The window tint will make it pop. If you go with white Rev 10's black speaker grills will tie it all together

Thanks guys. It's not in my name just yet, but it's a done deal minus the paperwork.

I agree H, should look real slick. What level of tint did you do on your boat H? We're both in the Pacific Northwest. I don't want to go too dark for consideration of evening rides.

The one good thing about our lakes is that they're F'ing deep. Sadly, the boat ramps only go so far! LOL. Pitt river might be even more crowded this summer! Lets all pray for lots of snow in February!!

Ya Pitt river last year was low. My trailer falls off the ramp at one location and it's all mud. Had to literally drag the boat onto the bunks while loading up a few times just because I was scared of not being able to tow it out. If it's lower than last season my launch might be out of the question. It's been pissing for weeks and the lakes are high ATM. that's the only good news :)

They always look even better on the water!

 

 

I think it's got a real clean look to it. Gonna tint the window to add some more contrast though.

Congrats! I love the colors. Good thing about buying used is that if you do decide to upgrade in a year or two you won't take much of a hit on depreciation (if any).

Dark I went 20% this time and it is dark. If you have the bimini top up it is hard to drive looking through it with sunglasses on during the day time and just forget about it at night as you have to drive looking over the top of it. I love the way it looks but the truth is the 35% I had on the last boat was more functional.

Thanks guys! I think I'm even more excited now after all the positive comments!

We almost went with a custom order S21 just to try and hit the right price range. REALLY wanted to pick my own colors! But when I took the wife to look at the in stock one after figuring out a gelcoat she seen the FX22 and asked what was wrong with it!? I had to stop and think... well, nothing! It's a beautiful boat, but I wanted to pick colors! It was probably the best decision because we couldn't agree on a gelcoat together!

I really can't wait to get it home and do the mods to make it my own!

Should be a great summer!!

 

Rockballer: do you go to the public launch or the one with the gas station? I've never had an issue at the gas station one launching on the right(when looking down the ramp). The river is tidal. You can have issues at low tides.

The one by the gas station. The pay parking one and has the gas station at the dock. Always try and launch in the middle. But you are right. When the tide is down it can get low
