278SSC 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2018 We deleted the wet bar and went with the Volvo 350. I live in TX, so we went with seadeck throughout; everything else is just too hot on the feet here. We are big party cove partiers (hence the cuddy), so I got all of the stereo upgrades, and replaced the iCon 8s with Rev 10s on the tower and have built a custom box for my 12" Wetsounds sub. Went with the simple porta-pottie too. It's a great boat an handles like a caddy... you will be happy you got the trim tabs; definitely worth the $. We got ours early fall last year... we went out last Saturday and just passed 5hrs on the engine... LOL Probably going out tomorrow too; nothing like chilling in the cabin watching twighlight zone! Can't recommend domednumbers.com enough for your registration lettering... they have the Monterey Font and hundreds of color options. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

278SSC 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2018 No name for us on the boat... too small of a boat for a name IMO. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
